The Amiga had a far superior OS and user experience than PCs at the time, and for a long time in fact.
I think the hardware was really fun to work with. It had the copper processor and blitter which were programmable and powerful, and their use/abuse enabled really cool looking effects which drove the demo scene.
The 2d games still looked better and moved faster than on games for a good few years until directx and graphics cards started to catch up, and of course with 3D the pc win with brute cpu power
