A new NBC series spotlighting animations created by school kids in grades K through 12 will be debuting the middle of June. Hosted by John Beard, the first six episodes will be hosted from Rowland High School, which currently has over a dozen Amigas, including an Amiga-based automated video editing and animation workstation. The Amigas will be clearly visible during the introductions. Many of the animations shown will be those created by students at Rowland High, under the auspices of art teacher Dave Master, this year's Bravo Award winner for the state of California.

Mike, That's great to hear. 8) Do you have an airtime for the show here in L.A.? David

Not yet. They taped the live segments for the first six shows only last weekend. I will post more messages as I learn more. —Mike

Totally unrelated and less exciting tidbit… "The Rachel Papers," being shown on Cinemax this month, shows the main character at his desk a number of times with an A500 being used. It also features Ione Skye sans clothing a number of times! Of course I watched it to see the Amiga! ;^, Tim

A real classic "Screwball Hotel" has an Amiga toward the beginning of the movie. —————————————————-Don

If you go to see "The God's Must Be Crazy II", you will see an Amiga 2000 in the female lawyer's office.
