I might add that even the majority of "non-serious" users are! A lot of Amiga users
I know have ordered Cybervision64's and they are not even Lightwavers . They believe
that cybergfx is the first RTG worth buying, they didn't feel the same about
Picasso's, EGS and Retina etc.
This people have at least 040's and some are waiting for a Cyberstorm060 to be
delivered.

Stuart Ferguson already made Modeler more RTG compatible, so please, add the same
(cybergfx) screenmodes as the Windows version.

hear hear, I will buy a Raptor3 if I can (in a few months from now, earning the money
now with a lowly A4000/040 25MHz, with slides you do that faster than with animation :-)
or maybe a P5/120MHz earlier...
But first I upgrade my Amiga as high as possible, it's a lot cheaper for the same
price/performance boost.
Newtek has a underlimit for PC's also, raise the high end Amiga bar a little to
make Lightwave cross-platform in all aspects (we lost arexx already)
