(sorry for the jump in Sections here. I'm still trying to figure out CS
Information Manager.)
Anyway, This all has to do with the toaster because, when it comes
out, we supposedly have the money ready and waiting for it. And, if all
our upgrades solve our errors, I will try to get the Amiga hooked up to our
good stuff. (The VHS class here barely understands CHaracter
generation–how can they deal with ray tracing?).
My only problem is I don't know what the toaster will *DO*. I've
heard about it. I've seen spec sheets. But no one has yet explained to me
what its actual function is to be. A Gen Lock? A Frame Store? An internal
or Downstream keyer? A SEG? I don't know. I've steeped myself in so much
Amigaspeak in the last month I think I'm suffering from Amiga overload.
So anyway, I hope this answers your question <and how!>. I don't
mean to dump all this on you, but I'm kinda lost in the Amiga world, but
I'm beginning to like it.
Let me know if you have any advice.
