[quote] Yeah, some people considered them as quite good games machines... ;) [/quote]

you know, it takes quite a bit of audacity to say stuff like that when your favorite platform is the Atari. Amigas happen to be great machines with a great OS, even though they are quite dated by now. i would assume that members of this forums would show a bit more respect to old school platforms like the Amiga. hell, they had premptive multitasking in 1985. AFAIK Ataris still had cooprative multitasking for quite some time after that. now, i don't want to start a flame war, because it's really pointless: Amiga users and Atari users are, as i see it, on the same side ATM. i just wanted to know what you think have made the Atari special, and what it still does better then modern platforms. that's it.
