September 19, 1990 NewTek Incorporated 215 S.E. 8th Street Topeka, Kansas 66603 Dear Sirs, As Computer Learning Month (October) comes closer, we, the members of the Mountain View Computer User Group (MVCUG), Amiga SIG, find ourselves with a dilemna. Our counterparts within the user group have arranged to have representatives from Apple (Macintosh), IBM, and Tandy to come and do their version of "multi-media". While we, the Amiga users, know that the Amiga is far better suited for this kind of thing, we lack the resources to prove this. Currently, we have requested that a representative from Commodore come and demonstrate a few Amiga products. In light of the fact that our user group has won First Place, in the nation, two years in a row, for Computer Learning Month, we just might get a Commodore representative here, (we might also win the lottery too.) We would really like to see if a representative from Newtek might be able to take time out of his or her busy schedule to come and demonstrate what Newtek has to offer, particularly the Video Toaster (the most innovative, exciting piece of hardware EVER manufactured for ANY computer at ANY price.) If this is not possible, we would be extremely appreciative if Newtek could provide us with a videotape demonstrating the Video Toaster's capabilities. This tape would, hopefully, include Penn & Teller's video which has impressed so many at the Amiga conventions. It is our hope that we can also impress our counterparts with the superior capabilities of the Amiga and the Newtek product line. We thank you for your consideration in this matter. We would also like to reiterate our excitement and anticipation concerning the release of the Video Toaster and our hope that you can come through for us. Sincerely, Cliff McKeithan Mountain View Computer User Group Amiga SIG Chairman
