Amiga World, Dec. 1989

In a full page ad from Digital Animation Productions:

"Imagine being able to create the most powerful artwork on the Amiga.
In 16 Million Colors.  With Unlimited Resolution.
Imagine 24-bit RAM animation, NTSC/PAL, RS178, Analog RGB/Composite video,
10 RISC MIPS/1.5/MFLOPS, 19 MB/S drawing speed, 8MB BLIT Operations.
For more performance, the graphics board connects to our Transputer
Processor Boards, each capable of a max performance of 120 RISC MIPS.
Each transputer chip is capable of addressing four gigabytes of memory.
Unlimited expandability."

Ahhhh, eat your heart out Seymour Cray.

This is a Boston-based company.  I'll probably drop in for a demo
in a few days and I'll report what I've seen.  Stay tuned...
