- Amiga was indeed the name of the company that designed the Amiga, although the
- working name of their computer escapes me at the moment. All I remember is that
- before Amiga got into the computer-designing business, they made/sold joysticks
- for other computers. Kinda appropriate that they should ultimately design a
- game computer...
