There where some pretty efficient workflows in many of the tools, it was a really logical layout to an OS, and it seems like much of that thinking infected many of the developers that built apps for it. The video toaster comes to mind, while the Amiga hardware was obsolete by the time NT and SGI where in full swing for graphics, you still saw the real time stuff being done on toasters. It took advances in software to finally put the final nail in it's coffin. A lot of people that did not use Amiga's don't really realize how far ahead of their time they where. Through a lot of ingenious software and hardware designs and hacks they really built something that was from the future. That being said, after the toaster was surpassed, the present passed the Amiga up and now it's just nostalgia.
