Sure, video work sells some Amigas. And if you meant the reputation itself sells some more computers, that may be marginally true. What I think Ben's saying is that "multimedia" and "video" are not what _most_ Amiga sales are about. Myself, I'd guess that less than a few percent of machines are used for those purposes. It's like talking about using a computer to balance your checking account… very very few people actually do that 🙂 I do agree with you that it was the 3td parties which made Amiga a video machine. Heck, CBM didn't even call it "a multimedia computer" in their press releases until last year.
