     After talking to a local amiga dealer, he told me that the minimum
cost for a Video Toaster set up is $6000! This includes an 80 meg hard
drive, and an accelerator board. This price does not include the price
of an A2000. What is the bar bones set up for just using the frame
grabber and genlock capabilities of the Toaster? I'm not interested (yet)
in the 24-bit 3-D rendering part of the package, just the genlock and
framegrabber. Also, is there any video products (ie. camcorders or
VCR's) that have built in Time Based Controllers? Any help would
greatly solve my dilema.
