Although there are Amiga revivals, those > systems basically disappeared before the Mac changed to the PowerPC. The Power Mac was introduced in March, 1994. The Atari ST was abandoned in 1993. The Amiga 4000, the last model of the Amiga from Commodore, was introduced in 1992, and Commodore went bankrupt in 1994. So those two systems were around probably until only shortly before the last 680x0 Mac was released. John Savard
