Audio recording: Speech of Jay Miner
Bill Winters from the Youtube channel "Guru Meditation" has found an old audio recording in the garage of his father which includes a speech of Jay Miner at the "AmiExpo East Coast 1990" in Washington D.C. (USA). The "father of the Amiga" talked in detail among others about the history of the computers, his relation to Commodore and his ideas of the further development of the platform. At the end there was also a round of questions in which Miner seemed accidently to confirm the development of a successor of the A3000. (cg) (Translation: dr)
