Who won? The Amiga won!

It was neck and neck for the first few years, and both of them lost against Apple and IBM clones.

The one you owned won.
Grown men are probably now embarrased at the vitriol exchanged over this rivalry when they were yoofs.

I used to be with it, but then they changed what `it` was.
Now, what I`m with isn`t it, and what`s `it` seems weird and scary

The Amiga definitely won. I owned an ST and was constantly disappointed by the multi-format magazines saying that the Amiga versions of games were better. So much so, I sold the ST and got an A500. Everyone I knew had an Amiga. Still one of my favourite machines to this day.

Atari 1040ST.
Never felt the need for A meager.

A500 with 3MB RAM and a 20MB HDD! Haha!

I think if I'd been able to afford midi instruments I'd have looked upon the Atari ST a bit more favourably, but since I couldn't, the Amiga's built in sound chip and OctaMed made me not.

What little experience I've had with the ST's OS, it was awful in comparison... unless you really liked the colour green above anything else.
