You were doing OK until you came out with this bit, James.

>You mean the Amiga isn't dominating the Video/Multimedia market?

Oh, for goodness' sake!

Take a look at the following line:

	Newsgroups: comp.multimedia
                         ^^^^^^^^^^

Get the idea?  You will find there are other groups for Amiga, NeXT,
Macs, PCs &c &c.  Why don't you crosspost all your arguments to those
groups (don't forget to add comp.sys.atari-st to the newsgroups line)
and stay there in future.

If you guys want to play in the multimedia newsgroup, try to have
something to say about multimedia, OK?

Now, to justify my own posting, and to give you all an idea of what
this newsgroup is about, let me open something for discussion which I
consider to be a little more edifying.  Our group is analysing
specification requirements for multimedia, and we are looking at
synchronisation as being a central requirement of any practical
multimedia system.  How do you other people out there see this issue?
Does anyone have a handle on coping with the criticality/priority
problems posed by different data/object types?

Looking forward to some constructive discussion,
						Mark
