-
- I don't konw! The prices for the A4000T are too high, but then all the pros and
- video studios, TV stations etc. do need them and they will buy them!
-
- Even if the MACs and PeeCees are much faster than the A4000T (except for the
- A4000T/060) the AMIGA is still the king of video! As can be seen in the latest
- James Bond movie: the 3 Migs flight-bys, their explosions etc. were done on
- AMIGAs and RAPTOR stations using LightWave! (source AMIGA COMPUTING Feb 96)
- As it seems all the computer screens were also rendered with Lightwave!
