Frederic,
CD-32s will be in production too, eh? CD-32s integrated in televisions? Hmm,
sounds interesting, possibly a good platform for Scala MultiMedia and
InfoChannel playback. Hey, I wonder if ESCOM would support one of the new
Digital Video Disk formats. You know, the ones that can store 2 to 4 GB of
storage?
Hah, ESCOM is entertaining Dave Haynie's idea of a PCI based modular platform
to run Windows, PowerMac and Amiga. Interesting.
Strange that Mr. Birkinbine did not mention our company, but rather NewTek. I
can understand contacting NewTek for applications and peripheral hardware, yes.
But for new computer development?
As to the MIDI question, I wonder what it would take to add the Ensoniq 16-Bit
Wavetable Synthesis chip onto the motherboard. Why Ensoniq? Well, why not?
The President and founder of Ensoniq developed the SID chips on the old 8-Bit
Commodores. Might as well come full circle. Then again, there is Roland and
Kurzweil.
Regards,
John Chang
