Yeah, the Amiga seems like it completely dominated the multimedia niche, but the multimedia niche of the time essentially consisted of the demoscene. Which was great, except that the demoscene was not that large.
- Keyframe 13y agoHuh, Amiga (1000 onwards) was big in video. Especially smaller TV stations that couldn't afford SGIs. Amiga (and SGIs) were light years ahead of Macs in graphics. People often forget this fact.
- bnastic 13y agoAmiga 2000 (mostly) + NewTek Video Toaster[1] were the driving force behind the TV graphics back then. [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_Toaster http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_Toaster
