The Amiga 1000 was launched on July 23, 1985. Commodore Brought the Amiga to the public eye in a star-studded gala featuring Andy Warhol and Debbie Harry at the Lincoln Center in New York City. The Amiga 1000 had a number of major advantages over its competitors the Apple Mac or IBM-PC, including a broad color palette, impressive animation capabilities, and its ability to multitask. Commodore`s first Amiga Home Computer was launched for $1295 ($3,100 in 2021). The system shipped under the sole name ?Amiga` at first, but Commodore rechristened the computer the ?Amiga 1000` after the launch of the very successful Amiga 500 in 1987.
