Back then, the Commodore Amiga was where it was at. The personal computer was able to display more than 4,000 colors; in a demonstration from 1985, you see a Commodore exec showcasing all 4,096 simultaneously on screen to a crowds enthusiastic applause. "So when the people from Commodore approached [Warhol] and the saw what their computer could do, he was a lot more interested in using that," Wrbican says. "Plus they were willing to pay him a lot of money."
