Ok Dave, Of course you can order from Impulse directly, the price for Imagine 3.0 for the PC is $695.00. Ouch. We take Visa an Mastercard, to get your order placed sen us a fax with your address and your Credit card number, with Expiration date. But before you do, please call Alex of Amiga Oberland and tell him I said to call him and that he should give you a good deal. If he does not do you proper. then we may be able to find a different way in which to get you the software, possibly if you have some of the graphics product you could now upgrade to PC Imagine 2.0 for $200.00 and then place your order for Imagine 3.0 at the upgrade price of $100.00 this would save you a few DM. This competetive upgrade is presently working for others who want the software and not the high price. The only real problem with this method is that there is only an Amiga manual at this time, although that should not be a real problem because the software is the same on both computers, minor changes for the mouse and display cards but otherwise the same. Let me know what you would like to do. Mike

I just called Amiga Oberland. He couldn't give me any specific price for Imagine 3.0. He estimated 600-800 DM (which is $360-$480). The price you told me ($695) would be 1140 DM! This would be the very first time that a program that comes from the States is more expensive in the US than in Germany. Can you believe that? BUT, the man on the phone made an offer to me. He said that when I buy 1.1 now including the update to 2.0 (PC-version) and later when available update to 3.0 I will pay less than buying only version 3.0. He garanteed that and I made the deal. So I will have 2.0 on monday (with two german books, which he said are much better than the english ones) and wait for 3.0 to arrive in Germany soon. I hope I did the right thing, but I'm still in doubt… PS: Be prepared for thousands of messages in this forum here as soon as 3.0 is out 🙂 🙂

Hope you enjoy Imagine David. Look in Amiga arts for MANY MANY nice 3D Models for use in Imagine. It's always helpful to look at others work to get ideas for your own

Peter, I'm "upgarding" from a $100 animation program. 🙂 It wasn't that bad, but both the included objekts and the modeler are poor. May I bother you with my questions learning Imagine? <g> -David

David. I am sure you did the right thing, and if for any reason the distributor does not perform as promised, please feel free to call upon me for help in these matters. I look forward to hear what you think of Imagine and stand ready to help in any way that I or Impulse can. Happy rendering Mike
