Imagine isn't out yet.  Last I heard the manual was in some stage of being
written or edited or printed (flip a 3-sided coin). 

Last weekend I saw a demo of a Beta version of Imagine at the "Turbo
Silver SIG" which meets monthly in Culver City (Los Angeles westside
suburb) CA. It looked good but it wasn't done yet and was only part
of the editing environment, the animation and rendering stuff hadn't gone
in yet.

BTW, the Turbo Silver SIG Newsletter is a 2-pager monthly and is available
to anyone who wants to send $8 to Victor Osaka, 1341 Ocean Ave. #349, Santa
Monica, CA 90401.  The SIG was his idea and he runs each meeting. There
are also, so far, two member disks and one member object-disk available
and the newsletter provides the details wrt price and contents. 

Victor's also written a book called "A Beginner's Journey in Turbo
Silver" which he sells for $18.00 plus $2.00 packing/shipping sent to
him at the same address as above. The book's 3-hole punched and
printed to fit into your Turbo Silver binder.  From what I understand
Victor has NO plans to nationally distribute his book thru dealers or
distributors, perferring to sell it only via mail order. Dunno why.

Anyway I know you didn't ask about anything but Imagine but since
I was "here" I thought I'd toss in a plug for the SIG as well.
