And here Andy Warhol uses a Commodore Amiga (released 1985, $1295) to
digitize and paint Debbie Harry, back at the time when the Apple Mac
was a dull grayscales machine and the Amiga already had 4096 colour
´HAM´ mode.

It took Apple and ´visionary´ Jobs two years to release its first
colour Macintosh, the Mac II, which was huge as a truck, -ok, almost
like a PC-, and sold at a whopping $3989

It wasn´t until 1993 that a low-cost colour mac in a small enclosure
like the original Mac was developed...
