Seeing as the NeXTDimension's price is larger than the GNP's of many
third world countries :-) , this doesn't help me much. I can acquire an
A2000, Video Toaster, Genlock, and some spare memory and HD for ^$3500...
it even comes with AmigaVision, fer cryin' out loud. The NeXTDimensions
will have some stiff competition indeed.
