Don,
PMFJ, but < is there anything inherently better than an Amiga for the Toaster
or LW?> The issue is strictly one of market size. Make LW available for the PC
and its potential market has just grown exponentially. It's got nothing to do
with what's the "best" platform, just what's the biggest. The PC might well be
the "worst" of the 3 platforms for video and animation. But by virtue of its
size and the perceived future market for business videoconferencing, advances
in PC video and animation over the past year has been rather remarkable and I
suspect in another 2 years or so it may well be the "best" platform for video
and animation. If you disagree, just guesstimate the amount of R & D money
currently being spent to improve Amiga video handling vs. the amount currently
being spent to improve PC video handling.
Just my two cents worth,
Andrew
