VideoLogic makes an ISA and MCA version of the 4000 currently; they are
in Real Soon Now on the NuBus one.

This is quite a card, sports-fans.  2 separate (gen-locked) sources,
plus native computer graphics, takes PAL, NTSC, SECAM (!) or RGB (Brit
firm, so standards means "worldwide") and interpolates on the fly.
$2500 SRP.  Woo.

On the ISA system, by the bye, they snarf the VGA signals from the VGA
feature connector on the top of the board.  I presume that the MCA one
uses the MCA video bus for the same thing.
