You don't say whether you have a Toaster in your Amiga, or what kind of work you plan on doing. If you plan on rendering to NTSC, you'll probably find out that it's a pretty expensive proposition on the PC, because 99.99% of the video cards aren't capable of outputing a 24-bit NTSC signal. Cards that can, are very expensive, on a par with the Toaster. I plan on getting the PC version of LW because I think I'll be able to model and test-render faster on the PC, and then do the final work on the Toaster in my Amiga. Since things won't be happening until the end of the year, we can all probably evaluate our needs until then and make the right decisions.
