 The TV station which employs me requires a low-end workstation that 
would be devoted to our Weathercast. The system ideally would be tied in
to a weather service with auto downloading of weather info. It hould 
incorporate a  map generating facility as well as paint and animation. 
Since it will be used by non-techinical people it should be simple and 
straight-forward. My investigations have turned up a turnkey product 

called WEATHERCONNECT which is mentioned in the v1.4 of AmigoTimes. 
Unfortunately it would seem this company is either extinct or in court 
trying to determine the rights to the product.
Does anyone know of some product or combination of products that would 
serve these purposes. The Amiga will not be online but will act as a 
front end for our dedicated graphics systems. 
I sure would like to see Ami get a toe-hold in my company as I'm 
convinced once there it will prove to be the thin edge of the wedge (to 
mix metaphors)
