In reply to the user asking about recent demos by NewTek.  NewTek's Demo
Reel 3 'premiered' at the World of Commodore show in Toronto this weekend.
It's available as PD, from a number of sources.  I picked it up while at
the show.

Regarding the show itself.  I can't help but say I was disappointed.
Commodore obviously is flaunting the Amiga as a game machine; they went
as far as setting up an 'Arcade' area for game-play.  And with a $4 
student admission, it was swamped by VideoNuts.  

By and large, the show was dominated by software vendors such as Accolade,
Sierra, and SubLogic, toting their most recent hits.  (Sheepish comment:
I walked away from the Accolade booth with a Test Drive II license plate
under my arm).

Any other comments?
