Amiga Computer Awakened From Sleep With Makeover

Nearly three decades after its initial introduction, the Amiga personal
computer has been given a makeover with a new design and some of the
latest computing technologies.

The first Amiga, the Amiga 1000, went on sale in 1985, according to the
Computer History Museum. The brand went on to gain a loyal following
among users, especially gamers who valued its high-end graphics.

The Amiga Mini, which was announced this week by Commodore USA, aims to
recreate the magic of the old Amigas.

The Mini resembles a larger version of Apple's Mac Mini. It has the
Commodore OS Vision Linux distribution and Intel's Core i7-2700K
processor, an enthusiast chip that can be overclocked. The company has
tried to recreate the powerful processing and graphics capabilities of
yore and is targeting the new Amiga at gaming, workstation and home
theater use.
