	Amiga - (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		The first model, called the Amiga 1000, was released in 1985 as a successor to the Commodore 64 and a rival to the Atari ST.
		The Original Amiga chipset, or OCS, is more advanced than other architectures of its time: it has dedicated chips for real-time video effects, allowing users to work with genlocks to overlay graphics atop live video.
		Amiga's three-finger salute, (CTRL plus the two "Amiga" keys), which reboots the system (but doesn't erase or reload the kickstart software) is actually implemented in hardware, unlike the software-based forms in many OSs.

	Amiga
		The original Amiga Inc.[?] company was bought out in 1984 by Commodore International, who marketed the Amiga as their intended successor to the Commodore 64.
		The last Amigas to be made were the A1200 and the A4000[?].
		The Amiga chipsets, OCS, ECS and AGA, were more advanced than other architectures of their time.

		The first Amiga computer, simply called the Amiga, was released in 1985 by Commodore, who marketed it both as their intended successor to the Commodore 64 and as their competitor against the Atari ST.
		Overall, the Amiga was very successful in Europe, but it sold less than a million units in the U.S. In 1992, Commodore released their last Amiga computer models, the A1200 and the A4000: Each featured the new AGA chipset and the third release of AmigaOS.
		The Amiga 600 was originally supposed to be the Amiga 300, a very low-cost "introductory" model, but in an attempt to cut costs plans from CBM management changed at the last minute, and it was instead marketed as the successor to the 500 and the 500+.

		The CPU should be set at 68000 — this is the original Amiga 500 Motorola 68000 series CPU and the other options available are for the variations of this chipset which were used in later Amigas.
		To reproduce the Amiga 500 environment correctly, the Chip RAM slider must be set to 512 K, and the Slow RAM slider must be set to 512 K as well.
		The Amiga 500 only came with 512 K onboard (Chip RAM), and an additional 512 K (Slow RAM) expansion could be purchased separately and plugged in underneath the casing in the expansion slot.

	Amiga chipsets
		The Amiga chipset was once the jewel in the computer industry.
		Although the Amiga chipset is out of date compared to specialist graphics cards (it is, after all 5 years old) many experts envy its close ties to the rest of the system.
		Three variations of the Amiga chipset were released and a fourth version, the mythical AAA was dropped for not being advanced compared to similar systems.

	[No title]
		Amiga provides a middleware portability layer, which allows Amiga applications to be written once and run across a range of Windows Powered devices without change.
		In addition Hyperion have been making better than expected progress in decoupling the chipset dependencies in the OS with a result that it will cease to be reliant on the Amiga chipset at a very early stage of the OS 4 release cycle.
		Given this, we thought it would be sensible to try to provide Amiga chipset availability as an a option, so that the main A1 board would not have to carry the cost of providing this connection - in terms of PCB and component real-estate, and in requiring a custom tower to mount it in.

	The AAA chipset
		The AAA (Advanced Amiga Architecture)chipset was a secret project initiated by Commodore around 1989 to create the next generation of Amiga technology.
		Unlike previous chipset that provided both high and low-end solutions, AAA was entirely modular allowing it to be scaled to the level required.
		Before the new chipset all Amiga systems used a Planar mode as standard, with the possible exception of the CD32 which added a workaround, using hardware Chunky to Pixel conversion.

	1987 - Amiga 500
		Following in the footsteps of the C64, the Amiga, was leaps and bounds ahead of the PC competition in almost every conceivable way.
		The original sound chip supports four real-time sound channels (2 of them earmarked for the left speaker and 2 for the right) with 8 bits' resolution for each channel.
		Amiga Format Magazine was one of the many magazines available in the UK for Amiga users.

	Amiga - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In 1999, an entirely new company called Amiga, Inc. (no relation to the original Amiga Corporation) was incorporated in the US state of Washington, and received by Gateway a license to use Amiga-related patents and trademarks.
		Warhol used the Amiga to create a new style of pop art made with computers, and he was the author of the first multimedia opera called "you are the one" which represents an animated colorized sequence featuring images of actress Marilyn Monroe assembled in a short movie complete with soundtrack.
		Amiga was used in the production of her first album and also used as a sequencer in her first tour.

	The Amiga "Walker"
		Amiga Technologies' parent company Escom ran into trouble and Amiga Technologies was put up for sale.
		That was the end of the Walker and with it the end of the original Amiga line.
		Mindwalker (originally planned as Wyndwalker) was possibly the first Amiga Game and was apparantely bundled with the A1000 (at least in Germany).

		Over the past year or so since the original AmigaOne specifications were first published we have had a lot of private - and more than enough public - feedback on what people would like to see in the AmigaOne specifications over what had been published.
		The Amiga DE SDK Party Pack is an Amiga Inc. promotional program and has nothing directly to do with Eyetech, Hyperion or any of the AmigaOnepoint5 dealers.
		Amiga Inc. will be handling the administration of this program directly and will announce the procedures to be followed when the AmigaOnepoint5 goes on sale in volume.

		When asked about the links between parent company Gateway, Schindler confirmed that Gateway's original intention was to buy the Amiga patents solely on the basis of the value of the patents.
		About compatibility with legacy Amiga software and hardware, Schindler mentioned something called the "Amiga Classic Card" which will include the original Amiga chipset that plugs into the new Amiga models.
		Schindler was asked which kinds of users Amiga Inc. is targeting with the 5.0 Amiga.

	Interview with Saku of Maturefurk, the Winning Assembly 2001 Demo Team - OSNews.com
		The DemoScene grew rapidly and flourished on the Amiga.
		That`s why it is particulary encouraging to see that the Scene is still alive and kicking at the Assembly party this year, despite most sceners nowadays use Ghz PCs to impress their audience.
		The peak of the DemoScene for me was when RJ Mical (one of the original creators of Amiga) presented Maturefurk their trophy and proclaimed "Amiga rules!" while being followed by a loud applause from the audience.

		The first version of the format was created by Karsten Obarski for use in the Soundtracker tracker released for the Amiga computer in 1987[1].
		The original version of the MOD format featured four channels of simultaneous audio playback, corresponding to the capabilities of the original Amiga chipset, and up to 15 instruments.
		The format was designed to be directly playable on the Amiga without additional processing: for example, samples are stored in 8-bit PCM format ready to be played on the Amiga DAC, and pattern data is not packed.
