Commodore Amiga announcement, black tie event.
Andy Warhol using an Amiga to do a realtime color portrait of Blondie.
On prototype hardware.
The designers knew the "fill" function had a bug.
Andy used it, did not crash!
Stuff of legends.
Photoshop didn't even exist yet.
Folks in 2026?
Can they even understand?
(That black tie gala affair was in 1985 if I remember correctly. Stuff about the bug and not crashing were learned from the Viva Amiga documentary. I was not there in personal attendance and didn't buy a used Amiga 2000 until 1994 [and bought an Amiga 1200 later that same year.])
