- The one in Amiga Computing. The article is very misleading about this.
-
- Here is a quote:
-
- "We did the renders of the 3 of them flying over he camera, rendered
- them all on the Raptor by five in the evening..."
-
- He doesn't make any mention of using Amigas. In fact, he had to
- backpedal pretty fast when the magazine asked him why they picked
- Amigas. He said, "or rather, Lightwave on the Raptor..."
-
- I wish it wasn't so, but Amiga's presence in the rendering market has
- all but dried up and blown away, I'm afraid. As I see it, this is a
- direct result of Amigas having gotten incredibly far off the back of
- the price/performance curve. Until it gets back on, it'll only get
- worse.
