- You didn't really mean to say THE standard format did you? You probably
- meant something more along the lines of 'a possible standard for the
- storage of multimedia objects in a homogeneous Microsoft Windows
- environment.' That's certainly a large market, but there are probably
- still a few people around who are interested in multimedia on Macintoshes
- or Amigas. Perhaps they are even interested in being able to exchange
- multimedia data across multiple platforms. I know I'd sure like to see
- that be possible.
