	What about Intels DVI for the PC.  I attended a Developers
	Workshop for DVI this Fall.  The hardware seems so much
	more advanced than what the Amiga provides (at least from
	the video tape they sent me).  DVI allows you to author
	video on a CD - WITH COMPRESSION!  It provides all the
	special effects, output options, etc...

	The Amiga is impressive, but I think I'll wait until I
	can afford DVI - it is just so much better.

	Regards |(8>
