As I was looking through the AC's Guide, I came across Video Toaster
made by NewTek. From what I read, would this do everything that one would
want for multi-media platform??
Since list price is at $1595
 and comes with/as a character-generating program
 Paint and 3D program
 Broadcast quality genlock
 frame grabber
 digitizer
 DVE
 24bit-16 million colors

wouldn't you be saving a lot of money in the long run??
I have no knowledge of what this really can do vs. multiple packages
with the same or more power for around the same price..So could someone
clue me in via E-Mail.

By the way, I hear DCTV is coming out, what does that exactly do? Is it
better then Video Toaster?? Or am I comparing amigas and apples??

Or is there something better than all of these. It's not like I'm going
to go out and buy one tomorrow, but I am quite curious. I might be able
to get something like Video Toaster one of these days.
