: Amiga's Pre-emtive multitasking
: Amiga's low memory overhead
: MS Win95 memory protection (to isolate crashes)
: Amiga & Mac 30 or more character filename limit
: Mac "look & feel"
: Amiga, MS Win95 Plug 'n Play (no need for configuration of add-ons)
: Amiga, Mac built in mouse control
: Amiga built in joystick control (gotta have those games)
