Of course, Steve, one issue people often overlook re the "Amiga graphics are lagging" issue is that the very NTSC video compatibility that is built into the Amiga, which has been a great virtue and selling point for people in the video niche, is also holding back expanded video modes. However, I expect it will happen. Only trouble so far is that no 24-bit standard has emerged. The CBM "Lowell" board won't run Workbench, even! These so far are all niche products, not mass-market alternatives like VGA. But that will come. Plus, I think it's likely there will be at least one more iteration of the Amiga, in the form of a 68040 machine that may not be all that backward-compatible but will offer all the goodies and power everyone now claims to want.
