I think the example is a bit too sluggish but is probably a more correct presentation of the actual facts than my nostalgic outburst.
- baldfat 9y agoThe delays of just writing a widow is so slow. Macintosh Plus Review https://youtu.be/_bI0moHdjPQ?t=22m29s https://youtu.be/_bI0moHdjPQ?t=22m29s I was an Amiga kid. I had friends and co-workers who had Macintosh Plus and they always seemed to be so S-L-O-W to an Amiga. Amiga 1000 from 1986 https://youtu.be/CDWdVk-hmgA?t=51s https://youtu.be/CDWdVk-hmgA?t=51s The window draws were also slow BUT Ray Tracing and full animation compared to that lame Macintosh is just a whole different generation. Amiga lost and it took till 1994 or 1995 to beat an Amiga in 1986.

Of course, the newer one has newer graphics, but it also has enough transistors to replace each one in the 68k with a whole new 68k.
