The lengths Mac'ers will go to

At least it felt like it was from the ninetees 8) but it'll probably still beat the crap out of a GMA 950.

if you think mac users can be nuts you should have been around when amiga's were still being made and sold. anyone here remember the video toaster?

I STILL have my Amiga 1200, DCTV, VidiAmiga12, and Imagine 3.0 software. A friend of mine had the Opalvision board. Neither of us was rich enough as teens to afford a videotoaster, but I almost spent the extra 200 (over Imagine3.0) for Lightwave.

I'm tearing up just thinking about my Amiga, man that computer was great!!!
I did not have the toaster, but I did get to play with it alot as a friend and I convinced the company we worked for to purchase an Amiga with the video toaster and lightwave. We worked for a marketing firm that made radio and television ads as well as advertising ads for newspapers.
PC's used for general purpose stuff.
Macs used for the publishing department.
Amiga used for the video production studio.
A great place to work and learn about all the comptuers out at the time. My friend and I used to be the unofficial "tech" guys and we used to repair the computer equipment when it crapped out. We did not have to repair the Apple or Amiga equipment much at all.
okay, I'm done reminiscing...Sorry to bore you guys, I just get all sentimental when someone mentions the Amiga computer.
