Andy Warhol's lost Amiga art found
Apparently it'll be worth ~26 mil on auction. Shall we chip in?

If I had 26 million to waste, I would re-run Amiga assembly line ;-)

These valuations are pretty silly, but the files themselves are pretty cool. This is one warez loot I wouldn't mind seeing leaked somewhere on the net.
These were really heady days for Amiga. Getting Warhol to do some stuff wasn't a bad publicity move at all. Here's some of that art and an interview with AW: https://archive.org/details/amiga-wo...e/n17/mode/2up |

Yeah, I always found the Debbie Harry portrait very well done and it's cool that we have now the picture available in top quality. Thanks for the link to the interview. |

in 1985 Commodore showed that everyone could be considered an artist with an Amiga.
After all, everyone has their own tastes and colors for art... Amiga has 4096 colors. Just click "fill" on your Painting software and play with the palettes of colors |

But we don't do we? The picture is stuck on that disk and will be sold to the highest bidder who likely won't know what to do with the files even if they could access them!

Imagine if Commodore hired Bob Ross to do a few painting videos in Deluxe Paint in '86, '88... the Amiga's would be sold like crazy everywhere. |
