Sometimes, however, it's in our best interest to befriend these strangers because they can help you out.

Absolutely agree. The Amiga was for its era unparalleled, and many of its innovations silent adorn today's GUIs. And a few others still haven't arrived.

Everyone who doubts it should look at the state of any other system around the time the Amiga came to be. Nothing came even remotely close.

Of all time? Amiga Workbench 2.1. Loved it! So ahead of its time. *drops mic and walks off stage*

Amiga Workbench 2

AmigaOS ruled the world for a time... And then FreeBSD

And we have a winner - Amiga was so far ahead of its time that OSs are still catching up with some of its concepts and feature set.

Hey you got it on the picture right there!
