The Amiga was a color computer introduced by Commodore Computer in 1985 after beginning development as the Amiga Lorraine. Models included the 500, 1000, 3000, and 4000. Original software including Sculpt-3D, and Deluxe Paint II.
-
A unique feature of the 1000 model was its built-in composite video output. This allowed you to record to a VHS deck whatever you saw on the screen in realtime. With masked brush shapes and color cycling, you could really get some amazing effects out of D-Paint II with this set up.

Amiga - "The cool thing about the Amiga was/is (I have two in my house right now...) that it had a built-in graphics and sound co-processors and could do true multi-tasking on the Motorola 68000 series, which DOS, MS-DOS, WindowsX and MacOS never did on that CPU...or any other, for that matter. What a box!"- John Andrew Berton Jr.
