that is absolutely insane OS and performance for 1986....
Amazing for a 1985 computer!.
A 1986 computer doing stuff that most machines wouldn't be able to handle until the mid-to-late 90s. Amazing.
For 1986 this was a beast.
The 80's what a decade, You mean 1985 as that is when it came out
the CPU has always been seriously lacking, especially a math processor. But Commodore had bought the crappy Motorola line and had to stick with it. Always detested the 68000.
It was fine for the 80's, and later 6800's received some major clock boosts.
It might have been "fine", but it was only that. They did a wonderful job on the helper chips like Agnus and the copper, but all that power was hindered by a slow-thinking central "brain". Also, all those compromises to fly low with respect to a full-blown 32-bit technology (mostly the 24-bit address bus), I think they prevented the Amiga series, and Commodore with it, from replacing IBMs' as the home PC standard. In that respect, Acorn ARM machines were a lot more future-proof, but meh... I guess it's a long story for a youtube comment. If they only dared a bit more, rather than packing up a mostly game-oriented machine, and then specially fit for 2D scrollers, mostly. No wonder it didn't survive, and all that effort went down the drain of history. That's why I hate the 68000, the slow, limited heart of a wonderful body.

For its chipset the Amiga series were fast reliable machines inspite of their slow core making the Amiga affordable for the normal public which was a great set of Commodore. Even though they did not survive without them the computer would have never had such a great success for the normal man. They really brought the computer into the living room.
I still have the original Amiga 500 computer + games 😺👍🕹️.
I also have the original Commodore 64 computer + games on the tapes and disks 😺👍🕹️.
Greetings from Vantaa, Finland 🇫🇮.
The Amiga and The Art of Noise are such an appropriate pairing
30 years and one day ago, this computer came out. Happy anniversary!
Absolutily incredible for 1986. In 1987 my fathers buy me an Amstrad CPC6128, but The Amiga are very advance.❤
Great to see the classic Real 3D teapot render.
i used this video for my students, to prove that old hardware plus C language can do anything :)
I loved this computer when I was a kid! Thanks for bringing back memories! ❤
I have one of those somewhere. Also, an Amiga 2000. I haven't run either in a while.
The best thing about the A1000 I remember was when the A500 came out with Kickstart 1.2 and then Kickstart 1.3 some of the early classics wouldn't work for half the A500 owners....but it was easy enough to get 'backups' of Kickstart 1.3 disk and you don't even need to open machine to play any Amiga game when Kickstart 1.3/1.2 was an issue :)
Hi. Just a small notice. Amiga 1000 came out on July 23rd 1985. Other than that,.. great video!
1985 : yes, the first pieces. Mine was built in 1986.
Thank you ;-)
We were a Mac family back in the day and in retrospect we sure backed the right horse. But I sometimes wonder about the alternate universe where we had an Amiga instead. It’s clear the Amiga had better hardware and the OS had its advantages. But the one thing I think Amiga people miss about what made the Mac special is the toolkit in ROM. This made Mac applications appear Mac like. You could tell they were different applications but they all looked and behaved like each other. For better or worst, I can’t say the same with these Amiga applications demoed here. They all have their own interface. As a home user that probably wouldn’t have mattered much. But for a business user, the unified Mac interface was what gave the platform its cult following.
It’s the cult following that bought Apple a few more years that’s allowed it to survive the dark 90s years before the second coming of Steve Jobs and the original iMac brought it back from almost dead.
nice video indeed, thanks for sharing ;-)
this pc's performance quite impressive for 1986
no wonder users and developers never fully grasped its potential... a pity to see it go down unappreciated back in those days
What are you talking about? Amiga was super popular and users/developers were pushing its limits. If you don't remember those times, you can watch the documentary From Bedrooms to Billions: The Amiga Years!
Lol, the Juggler demo was exactly what I wanted to see! (irony)
Juggler demo is a must.
i have a Tandy 1000sx from 1986 just turned 30 years old this year 2016 of course not the day this video was made haha its my oldest computer in my collection :D
great demonstration!
I remember that F1 game, ah the wonders of running at 6-8 FPS...
oops, clavier qwerty
Nice ! I have the 3000 model Amiga in my retrocomputer collection. I wonder games in that video are loaded from HDD - it's a WHDload used there of early version or what ? I thought Amiga games normally worked from floppies and only WHDload allows then to work from HDD
wow, great hardware :)
Great great video!!
Thank you ^^
prot88 did people edit music videos with amiga?
Yes, with "trackers" or midi softwares like "bars and pipes"

the candle render is not so bad, but im glad now we got blender for free
I thought the original Amiga 1000 was not a Commodore product until they bought out Amiga and came out with the Amiga 500.
It was Commodore; the Amiga wasn't actually produced until Commodore bought the tech (the chips were designed, but the whole package and minor specifications hadn't been formalised until Commodore bought them). The Amiga team weren't in a position to launch anything until Commodore bought them.
Just to add to the reply you already had, the Amiga 1000 was a Commodore product that made the Amiga branding the most prominent. The Amiga 500 used much more prominent Commodore branding. So they were both Commodore, just one more obvious than the other.
I love Amiga.
It seems funny now, but this kind of graphic animation 1:06 in 1986 it was a cosmos
Très cool !!!
excellent system
Thank you for uploading this. I miss my Amiga 800.
I believe it's still better than the latest Microsoft.
+yuumilli Amiga 800 ?!?
+prot88 Amiga 500 I meant,
Amiga 1000 was also really good
good music👍
Да это офигенный компьютер!!!
Awesome video my friend! How did you get the black and white footage into the Amiga at the time? Don't tell me you had to do it frame by frame?
The amiga 500 was only used to make "special effects". Videos was recorder on VHS recorder with horribles cuts ;-)
The Amiga was one of the earliest to use a Genlock add-on which allowed you to input video through it from a VCR or camera, as well as output to another VCR, which made it quite popular among video production companies, especially when NewTek's "Video Toaster" expansion was released.
BOOZE & METAL We do today.
Guy are you still there? Can i have MOD files that uses in manor?
No, sorry. Only old VHS tapes.
*N E W* 3D World
I still have 2 amiga500s and a commodore64c....commodore wasn't really the same when jack tramiel left the company and i think david pleasance of commodore uk would of been a better choice as ceo.
OMG, is it really 86 ?
1985 was the first release year of the Amiga, but this man's unit was produced in 1986, hence the title of his video. It's an impressive machine for that time!
I always thought as a kid, that A500 was the first Amiga model.
Then, several years ago, in the early 2010's,
I found out, that A1000 was the first Amiga model of 1985.
I'm 39 years old (born in the summer of 1983) and still own the original Commodore 64 and Amiga 500 computers + games.
😺👍🕹️
Where download demo MANOR?
+Alex Петров You can't. It was not a demo but a VHS video tape.
+prot88 Only on VHS?
+Alex Петров I have a DivX version if you want.
+prot88 Okay, give DivX version
+Alex Петров
Give me your email, I will send you a download link
What did you have to do to add a HDD to it?
Sorry for late answer. It need a Scsi controller card and a hard drive plugged at the right side. In this A1000 i use a 1990 "modified" A500 controller + hardrive (box above the mouse in the first photo). The modification is only to plug the controller upside-down = first pin become last pin. It's the difference between A1000 and A500 expansion port.
Can you give me module from 22:00 ?
"salut la compagnie" ?
are you french?
geoffrey arrius Absolument.
Fantastique!
J'ai toujours voulu avoir une bête comme la tienne ;)
