Howdy do, multimedia-heads:

I wonder if someone can point me toward some information about some sort 
of video editor like the Amiga's Video Toaster but on an 80486-type
platform.

Thanks a heap

     Sure!  It's called the Video Toaster, and it comes in a big external
box (which looks suspiciously like an Amiga 2000) with its own keyboard and
video.  I believe the PC version comes with a serial cable and software to
allow the switcher to be controlled from the PC.  :-)

     (Yes, NewTek apparently does market the Toaster this way!)


     Anyway, what particular Toaster functions do you want to be able to 
duplicate?  With enough money and enough add-ons you can probably do most or
all of what it does, but I think currently the best way to duplicate the
full functionality of the Toaster is to get a Toaster.
