I have many bookmarked hardware pages but for some reason they don't have dates in the specs along with each model. I'll include them for your info and perhaps you can find this info out from links that these pages have.
1985 is when the A1000 was released from there it snow balled http://www.amiga-hardware.com/ http://www.zimmers.net/cbmpics/index.html http://www.titan.co.nz/amigaak/AA060100.htm |

 seems strange not to find a lot of this info on the hardware pages  Perhaps just not enough time to update the pages I guess. As for the pages, it's amazing what you start to find once you click on a links page or three........thousand :laugh |

1991 seems a bit late for the CDTV, im sure it was more along the lines of 1989

Oops! Correction duly noted. @Andrew: Hope you weren't cramming for an exam on Amiga Chronology!
 Interesting CDTV fact-ette: Project Manager was none other than Mr Nolan Bushnell. Here is a wildly optimistic quote from the man himself: "CDTV will truly change the way people learn and are entertained. It's the real new media of the nineties." No comment. |

It was for my website that I'm working on. Was writing a page about the chronology of these machines but couldn't find anywhere on the net that said when they were introduced. Thanks, much appreciated
