I was a big Amiga fan back then, and I think for a long time, it was a superior machine to pretty much anything else (preemptive multitasking, multi chips, great graphics and sound, etc...).
In 1995, I booted Windows 95 for the first time and as soon as I saw it, I immediately thought "That's it, game over for the Amiga. Windows has won".
It looked gorgeous, was reasonably fast, featured preemptive multitasking (10 years after the Amiga...).
I sold my Amiga in the months that followed, with much sadness.
