All credit to the guys over at Amiga Vision and anyone involved in bringing this amazing project to life.

The Commodore Amiga is widely regarded as one of the most groundbreaking and revolutionary computers in the history of computing. Released in 1985, the Amiga was not only ahead of its time but also boasted many features that were not available on other computers at the time.

One of the most significant features of the Amiga was its advanced graphics and audio capabilities. The Amiga was the first computer to offer a multitasking graphical operating system, which allowed users to run several programs simultaneously. It also had a custom chipset that allowed for advanced audio and video processing capabilities, which were far superior to its competitors at the time.

Another significant advantage of the Amiga was its ability to display more than 4096 colors on screen simultaneously. This was achieved by the use of a unique display mode called the HAM (Hold And Modify) mode, which allowed for more detailed and vivid graphics.

The Amiga was also known for its extensive library of games, which were often exclusive to the platform. Many of these games took advantage of the Amiga's advanced graphics and audio capabilities, and some even used the Amiga's multitasking capabilities to create more complex and engaging gameplay.

Overall, the Commodore Amiga was a groundbreaking computer that was ahead of its time in terms of graphics, audio, and multitasking capabilities. Its legacy continues to this day, with many enthusiasts still using and developing software for the platform.
