I'm sitting here reading the may issue of "AmigaNews" (Good name for a french 
magazine?) while Imagine 2.9 renders. I Thoght you might be interrested in the 
following information:

On page 5, CIS (one of the bigger dealers and importers in France. They carry 
the exlusive rights for GVP and more), announce that they will release 
Lightwave 3D in PAL as a standalone program. It needs 2 MB chip + 8 MB fast 
minimum and a big harddisk (it comes with 20 disks). Drivers for the most 
common 24-bit graphic cards like EGS, IV24, Picasso, Retina and also AGA are 
included.

Price 6000 FF (French Franc). They say that the date of introduction is not 
fixed yet, but june is probably. And I might also tell you that it is 
translated to french :-)

My guess is that it will be released in other contries as well?

The pressrelease also says that NewTek for the first time speaks about making 
a version of the Toaster with the internal signals all composant. And with 
outputs: RGB, Y/C, Composite and Beta. Both NTSC and PAL. The forecasted date 
of introduction for this new generation Toaster are second quarter next year.

My french is not the very best, but I think I got it right.
