On the contrary, I think it was you who didn't understand what Mike B was getting at.
He was using the analogy of the Amiga vs. Atari ST to suggest that the technical superiority of the PS3 over the 360 will become increasingly apparent, just as it did with the Amiga over the ST.

Spot on!
Also for example, I did own a Commodore 64 next to a professional Amiga. But I have more fond memories of the Amiga, because it allowed me to do things not possible on other systems of the time. I could perform movie editing better and easier than I could on a PC more than a decade later, I could copy & paste my writings and charts between a paint program, spreadsheet and word processor with ease, running these applications all at once, switching back and forth without effort. I was able to play the bulk of the best games released around the time with usually well superior graphics and audio quality.
The thread wasn't really focused on sales, anyone I know who was a c64 (more sales) or Atari ST owner would happily trade his or her system for my Amiga.
