While I was vacationing in Florida recently I had the opportunity to go
to the Disney/MGM Studios.  I was in the Indiana Jones Epic Stunt
Spectacular waiting for the show to start when I looked down at the control
booth and say a very familiar looking monitor.  I looked at it for quite
awhile and came to the conclusion that it must me an Amiga monitor.  So after
the show was over I went down the the control booth and lo and behold what
did I see but 2 or 3 Amiga 2000's sitting down there.  I talked to the guys
in the booth and they said that they use them for controlling the wireless
microphones and some other things, I forget what else they control, I think
they used one for the sound effects.  The guys in the booth said they really
enjoyed using them and said that they knew there were more of them around
Disney in use.  I wish Commodore would use this as one of the advertising
ploys, talk about a big name that you could boast uses your machines.  If
you have any questions about this let me know and I will answer them to the
best of my knowledge and ability.  I thought it was really cool to see the
Amiga being used by Disney.
