- I think the comparison of the C-64 and any AMIGA computers is like
- comparing Apples (not the computer) and Oranges.
-
- The C-64 is from a whole different generation of technology. It is
- easily a programmers machine, or a users machine.
-
- Certainly the Amiga is more powerful and functional in most every way.
-
- But it is also much more of a users machine.
-
- Now, if you want to compare APPLE II computers and C64's as has been done
- ever since they came out around the same time it is C64 hands down,
- especially when bang for the buck enters the conversation.
-
- The C64 will live on!
