- The Intel clone products that interest me are not cheap or numerous (LW, 3D
- Studio Max, Soft Image, PhotoShop, Fractal). Amiga products are generally less
- expensive, not more. There are things you can do on both platforms that you
- can't do as well on the other. Many people use several platforms together.
-
- I'm sorry if info on CyberGraphX is not of use to some people but it is
- certainly useful to others.

- CyberGraphX won't help the Toaster specifically because the Toaster is very
- much tied to the Amiga graphics chipset. But if you run other paint/image
- processing/drawing or business software CyberGraphX might be useful for you.
-
- People with Amigas should know about CyberGraphX. There are some very
- useful tools for the LW animator available on the Amiga that become much
- more useful with CyberGraphX and your choice of graphics card(for example
- ImageFX2.1a and ProVector 3).
