Fascinating. Interesting that he was a "big box" guy from the start. Didn't want any truck with "cute" computers. I agree with him about the ads; I never saw them until the mid 90's (they were floating around as Quicktime vids, IIRC, a decade plus before Youtube) and they were cringe-inducing. Hell they still
are.
Also interesting to hear him mention that he was a 50/50 "DOS"/"Windows" user (here meaning the CLI and Workbench, of course).
@21:40 - he wouldn't have gone with bitplane graphics
@22:49 - (and mentioned earlier) he felt C= should have pursued closer ties with MS and Borland for more (any!) of their software on the Amiga.
All very, very fascinating. I'd rate that a very close second to the Doug Engelbart demonstration in San Francisco in 1968 - he demonstrates and discusses a networked, GUI based desktop for Xerox. He does text highlighting, internal document linking, etc., nearly two decades prior to Apple. That video can be viewed
