A.k.a. the "Jackintosh". :)



Which came about also after Jay Miner took the Amiga away. I believe Tramiel acquired Atari hoping to get the Amiga chipset, which Miner then took to Commodore.


In the end, I liked the STs better. The Amigas were, of course, more capable and more in line with Commodore and 8-bit Atari tradition, but the minimalism of the ST is refreshing to the point of reminding me of the simple elegance of the Apple II.

Even a plan-B can become a masterpiece.
