Andrew Its great to actually talk to someone you have actually met in person (in Toronto) on CompuServe. I got the T4000 system primarily to make business related videos and provide audio-visual support. I have in fact hired someone named Russ Spencer who is working on this full time. I am only spending maybe a week, as I have to operate my normal consulting practice (to pay for all of this). We just really go going in June. We just completed providing audio visual support for a conference in Vancouver for the Society of Safety Engineers, and I am consulting to another organizaion on how to use multi-media to support their efforts. This will lead to a series of short video modules. ( I have an order for the flyer). Then, I have a couple of initiatives going with two groups on making videos for the non-profit sector. These two are more speculative oriented; i.e – coming up with a good idea and trying to sell it in the market place. I have a few other items on the go. My basic approach is to try and capitalize on consultant experience/networks while we learn the trade. For now, I am offering to do things at below market rates in order to acquire some experience. Now, I have also started a dialogue with Hugh Ranalli that I hope will lead to some CD ROM work on the IBM side. I think you and Hugh know each other or worked with each other if I am not mistaken. I would be delighted to talk this way or by phone or in person with you further about AMIGA land as I am new to it, and have my own background in IBM. Michael
