Quote:

I find it ironic that the Amiga, which was originally designed in America may ultimately end up as IP of the Italians. Why is this ironic? America was named after an Italian.


But the name Amiga is from the spanish language.

The Italians and the Europeans always seemed to appreciate the Amiga more than us Americans.


I would say that, with the exception of the Vic20 and C64, all Commodore computers were generally more popular and successful in Europe than in the USA.

Starting with the PET computers, even the C16 and +4 and GS64, and finishing with Amiga line computers, particularly the A500 and the A1200.

@DiscreetFX

to precise the germans are to be blamed ;)

a german team worked on new world cards and wrongly thought Vespucci had discovered america (Columbus till end of life thought he was in india). Vespucci (in opposite to Columbus) always knew it was not india but a new continent
