  This is a real marketing delimma.. It's impossible to make a toaster
  without the Amiga graphics chip set. In fact all the MAC toaster is 
  is an Amiga that's controlled through an external SCSI cable and 
  remote software.. 

  Now if you really want to, you can buy a Video toaster and by the Vortex 
  486sx board (which fits into a Video Toaster, which is really an Amiga)
  and let the machine run 486 based software on a window, or separate 
  screen display alongside the Amiga software, and probably in fact the 
  Amiga toaster switcher software..

  Also, Newtek has announced that a version of the toaster (which is sold
  with the Amiga, just like the MAC version is) that has windows based
  remote control software included with it. Why not mention this is really
  an Amiga.. Well some people can only buy or put on purchase orders that
  they are buying a PC or MAC video peripheral. It increases sales, plus
  Newtek bundles an Amiga with their toaster board..

  So, yes, you can even make the Video toaster an IBM compatible by buying
  the Vortex 486 bridgeboard and a decent VGA card. It will even use the 
  toaster's framestore as a hard drive.. Isn't that amazing...
