I'm looking at using a Mac II as a video graphics and character generator
box with either the NuVista or RasterOps SFX card.  Both seem to do
Chroma-keying and allow mixing of mac video and external video signals
on the card without the need of an external video mixer.

Which of the following would be an accurate description of the quality 
output by these cards:

	1. "broadcast quality" for TV stations

	2. Corporate production quality

	3. Home video quality

Also, in a broadcast situation, would it be best to just output the
graphics/characters and leave the mixing to a separate box?

thanks,

michael
