>> I wonder what would have happened if Amiga Inc. could have come up with some
money and remained independent…
Some observers say that Amiga Corp's original object was to simply build THE
killer game machine, nothing more. I think you'd find a wide variety of
opinions, even in the original devlopment team, as to what the Amiga would have
been without Commodore stepping in. There's not doubt that Commodore's push
towards building a computer with general capabilities was not viewed with joy
by many team members. But (as they say about aging) it wasn't so bad when you
considered the alternative.
