Also most of my friends with Amigas cared only about Assembly.
Of course. I tried to be as brief as possible, not to bother people. Even C had a stigma of being slow back then. Assembly was the language for anything performant, but everybody was aware that in the following years computers will get fast enough (computers, not compilers hah) not to care.
Sure, sorry for misunderstanding you.
That is why I always smile when people talk about how modern languages are so slow and C is the king of speed, if only they used those old C compilers back then...
