If you haven't come across an Ahoy video, then you'd be in for a treat, as he has pretty excellent production values and has a way of turning mundane information into a compelling story. In this video in particular, he shows us his search for the real sales figures for the Amiga after showing the current information was basically heresay with an unreliable source.

After this video was put up, it became the new official source linked to on Wikipedia as the most accurate estimate of total Amiga sales.
