Time machine: Amiga 1000, an icon among computers ®

It was the Commodore Amiga 1000 short-Amiga. 

In an era in which the term microcomputer was tied with the IBM PC compatibles with text display and a miniature integrated speaker, the Amiga offered blinding color graphics and stereo sound. 

Its intuitive user interface looked like McIntosh's but offerd an advanced option called "multitasking". 

The machine was a hit, especially when one takes into account that it came from a company previously known for "worn" home computers such as the VIC - 20 and Commodore 64.

Over the next nine years Commodore sold millions of Amiga. People who liked this system loved him to frenzy and its graphics capabilities were so powerful that he became the first personal computer widely used in TV and film studios. 

However, none of this was enough to prevent the collapse of the company Commodore which in 1994 declared bankruptcy. 

Amiga was one of the greatest computers ever made, an icon among computers that marked the most important epoch in the development of personal computers.

When the Amiga was born, home users and company employees were still trying to figure out what computers are and why anyone would want to deal with them. But you didn't need to spend much time with the Amiga to understand why it was so cool - it was enough to experience what it can do.
