Sure.. but what is the cost of getting it to video? I use Scala MM300 for video titling (retired BT2 SHR ages ago) and tying in animations along with photo stills. Works great and no problem outputting it to tape with the SuperGen. I also have a PC sitting here (using it now) and am totally confused on what to get and from who (or even if they will be around in the future. All of the companies arent going to make it selling vid cards). I just hope that the Amiga will not be left behind for the 'greener' PC pastures.
