Even without much advance warning, they should've been prepared better, I think. The Macromind videotape shown from the Mac guys was obviously prepared well in advance and took a looooong time to create. But the viewer comes away with the impression that it was realtime super gfx, etc. And that of course is what you want to happen to viewers. Methinks offhand that C= falls into the same trap a lot of us do: that is, you think that just telling specs to someone should make them fall over and beg for the machine. Hardly. Someone else pops up with a really cool demo on another computer, and you're history, pal <grin>. Shoot, I could've done the same demo as the C= one with a tape deck, and some crayons, almost. Pretty weak compared to what has even been shown previously by Amiga 3td parties on the Chronicles.
