That is an interesting view point from your father, I think he definitely has hit upon something. If I remember correctly the Amiga was envisioned as a games console with the ability of a computer added on. I think if you were to look at it from that perspective the limited lifespan of the Amiga would make sense, just like the Super NES, Megadrive etc. had a limited life. However as others have said there were many other mitigating factors that just worked against the Amiga. I think the PC and Mac played it "safe" and that might be one reason for their dominance now, business is for the long term ... but I could be going off on a completely wrong tangent though lol
