In the early days of the Atari ST and Commodore
Amiga, (and I may have the two reversed in the following anecdote), Atari had a nice
display of a bouncing checkered beach ball. Amiga had almost nothing.
But, the second day, everybody except the booth bimbos at Commodore looked haggard, but
their machine was showing a bouncing checkered beach ball. And it was bouncing faster than
Atari's!
Yes, you have them mixed up. Amiga had the bouncing beach ball, with sound.
Atari had nothing.
