- wslh 3y agoIndeed, based on Wikipedia ~4 months of difference but we are comparing a microprocessor with a full computer though. The Amiga included capabilities (sound, graphics, sprites) that took more time to incorporate in average PCs. A last observation, I remember sprite support was an important capability for early microcomputers but the PC completely ignored that.
