The Top 100 PC Tech Innovations of All Time
Posted 11/21/2008 at 07:32:25pm
That is only the start of the revolution. It was the first multimedia computer. In 1985 there was a multimedia computer. 4 channels of sound (Mac and PC could not do anything close to that). Image/animation/video resolutions up to 640x512. Images in 4096 colours. Animation and video in 32 colours, that may sound small, but unlike Macs and PCs, the Amiga could swap the palette every frame, so in a ten second video file, the Amiga could display all 4096 colours (try that on a VGA card nine years later and your 256 colours that could not change looked pretty bad as the video cut to a different tone range). Speech synthesis (at least as good as the Macs). Two button mouse (up to five buttons). Optional pen on screen mousing inputs. To top this off, the Amiga had full multitasking as well... in 1985!
