Commodore’s Amiga wiped the floor with the early IBM PC’s for stability, ease of use and programming but sadly the tight wads at Commodore didn’t put much money into research and development, so it got left behind.

It was left to Apple to forge ahead but by then Microsoft had become established and it is going to take something extra special to make MS loosen it’s grip on the computer world.
