What in god's green earth were they supposed to have done? Sent in a Commodore-Einsatzgruppen team to mop up all the engineers at Intel and AMD?
:roll:
The Head Manager thought Amiga was just a game computer without thinking we can also work with it.
Uh.
No.
Try again. Look at all of the productivity (music, art, etc.) programs that were there when the Amiga left the gate back in '85.
They do not provide a amiga with a built in hard disk.
In 1985 (A1000) or even '87 (A500, A2000?), that would've put the price of the systems in the stratosphere.
By comparison, the 1983/84 Apple Lisa had a 5mb HD and that pushed the price up to $10k per unit.
They thought they :-x had only one enemy atari.
Finally, something on the head. They focussed too much on nuking Atari due to the bad blood between the two. It was the depths of stupidity. I mean, come on. Commodore was producing Big Box Amigas (A2000, A3000, A3000T) when Atari was still making dinky little C128 sized STs.
