If Tramiel was an out-and-out wrong ‘un, he wouldn’t have inspired that kind of loyalty. On the other hand, we have the testimony of Dave Morse and others at Amiga Technology, who found the Tramiels collectively a bruising bunch to deal with.

I’ve written tons of blog posts about the Amiga. I’m a huge Amiga fan. Better machine than the Mac in every possible way, they weren’t even in the same universe.
