Even though I find the Atari ST family a better overall design, the Amiga is a maximalist machine, full of interesting and unique abilities back then. In the end, it was doomed by its complexity, which made development costlier and slower until it was finally overtaken by PCs with VGAs and SoundBlasters, running Windows 3. A shame it didn’t last longer.

Technically Amiga Workbench was always superior to Windows 3, I think Microsoft won the PC because it was not tied to the hardware and variety of software.
