Hey, no touching *very* successful home gaming platforms - IIRC, the DOS 
scene shined on for quite a while after Amigas fell into pitiful 
stagnation. The low resource requirements and the "flexibility" that 
direct everything access provided are probably to blame in a large part 
for home computing as we know it today. Maybe the system didn't go the 
Right Way, but it sure as hell went the Way that Worked.
