If you watch this video at around the 2:03/2:04 mark till 2:08, it looks like a kid is using an Amiga (tv/monitor screen looks like workbench).

What does everyone else think?

I thought it was cool anyway.

@Amiboy

I think it's too blurry to tell to be sure. At first I thought it was Windows 95, but the black bar at the top does look very workbench-ish.

Looks like workbench to me.

Tweaking the gamma, saturation and contrast shows the screen contents better:

It's the Workbench.

You can see the Trashcan at 2:06.
I think it's version 2.04.

@TheDaddy

Yes indeed. With a Philips CM8833-II MK2 monitor:



I used to have one. Sniff. :(

Probably an A500+ is what's in use.

It's the Workbench because the trashcan was there and the monitor I think is a Philips one.

Cool

Just looking and the Philips is over there. Good One. Was it better than the Commodore1084?

Works nice this MKII.


Many people made videos with an Amiga .A few here for example;)

DigiView Gold etc and a lot of stuff + music.

@Thread

Well spotted! Kid is sure playing with ancient 2.X Workbench! ^_^


Perhaps regarding Monitor 1084S I spotted one in movie "Natural Born Killers" when Mickey Knox (Woody Harrelson) is interviewed in prison by journalist Wayne Gale (Robert Downey Jr.).

I wonder if it was reviewed in the database of Amiga and C64 cameos in movies.
