This video demonstrates well how differently the Amiga was in usage as a computer and capabilities during the 80s compared to a MSDOS PC.

Note: There were many optional expansions such as a x86 PC emulator, so you could have a x86 PC and 68k Amiga in one box (switching work environment makes the differences even more apparent), AmigaOS was always 100% a 32-bit bit operating system so takes immediate advantage of a faster full 32-bit CPU upgrade (this model Amiga demonstrated only had a 8 MHz CPU), you could upgrade this system in the late 90s with even PPC expansion boards, graphics cards, 16-bit soundcards, etc. Things impossible to do with PCs from the 80s.
