And on the 6th day…

@gruber @limi I tend to agree with that sentiment. Their marketing dept (and R&D) seemed so incredibly broken by the late 80s. And their complete lack of knowing what to do with Amiga has been chronicled ad nauseam.

Fun chatting with you, Gruber. I’ve been a fan and DF regular since before the original iPhone. (I became a big Mac guy during the dot com boom of the late 90s.) ☮️

@gruber @limi boo hiss

I'll stack the C128's colors + sound next to the //c any day, even though they both died. Plus it had 3 OSes to choose from. Pretty cool.

Honestly pre-1991 C='s hardware was solid. Post 1991 it quickly became dated (and C= sat on it pretty much from the day they either made it or acquired it). The 90s ate Commodore's lunch. Leadership was tragically clueless.

80s, though? They had the best-selling computer before the invention of the iPhone.

@limi @gruber

Apple //c sold: 380,000 - 420,000
Commodore 128 sold: 2.5 million

mkay ;)

@matj1 It's a hard drive

Seattle Commodore Computer Club starts….. now!

@fozztexx 😂

Desk space? Who needs desk space. My desk has but one function and it does it just fine.

@winfreak Thanks, winfreak. While I don't think very many people are interested in the content, it's a topic that has been on my mind for years and I'm glad to have gotten it out there. It was fun to make.

Also, for the video averse (or those in a place where video is ill-advised) there is an article version. https://www.amigalove.com/viewtopic.php?t=2732

I compare the Apple Newton to the reMarkable 2 e-ink paper tablet.

@thomasfuchs And yellowing plastics! I've seen quite a few A1K keyboards where only the front edge has yellowed and the rest is pristine.

‘Scuse me while I whip this out.

@talesofaprinny It's just a fancy SNES-style skin on my OLED Switch. Took about 20 minutes to put on. Actually looks and feels great in-person, too.

Because I’m a grown ass man, that’s why

1990: When a computer game icon could take up almost your entire screen, and it deserved it (and brought joy).
