I was flipping through the new AV Video issue, and saw a GVP ad that I'd never seen before. It was for a new G-Lock genlock card…for the PC! Interesting! I wonder what else GVP has up its sleeves for clones? SCSI adapters, perhaps? I hope that GVP does well with this product, although not too well 🙂

Jonathan, I have a friend here in King Of Prussia PA that says GVP is hiring a fair number of developers for PC products. Personally, I think it's great that they are continuing to broaden their product lines to maximize growth. I think they will still do great things for Amiga! Dan Barber barber@mdso.vf.ge.com

Just to make sure there's no concern, I want to make it clear that we still have lots up our sleeves for the Amiga here at GVP! Our entry into the PC market was simply a natural part of our growth as a company. Regards, Paul.

Yo Paul, saw your help wanted ad for a multimedia guy in the recent Post magazine. Glad to see you're looking for professionals in that industry! Keep On Toastin' Erik Flom (with his A3000-040 & the noisy CPU fan. :^)

If their PC things take off, then the Amiga support and product lines will fall into near neglect. Examples, GoldDisk, MSS, Impulse, Anjon … (and I didn't even hit the gamers!) I think they probably are hedging CBM going under, (stock still dropping) and probably realize that it is easier to grow in an environment were the manufacuter of the host for you products is n ot a single point failure and a rather schitzophrenic one at that! wmc – via Autopilot!
