If you have one of these babies can u post some answers to these
questions.

1) What kindof computer are u currently setup with?
I saw it being demo'ed on a 2500/30 and it was doing some amazing
stuff with frames off video.  I'm  wondering if this stufio on a card
can work with an 020 accelerated A2000 ?

2) Since you need a time base corrector, how did u solve this problem?
is there a cheap way to do this.

3) Since I'm a novice at video and want to do some 24 bit video artwork.
What does it take hardware wise to make 24 bit video on to a displayable
media like SVHS videotape?

4) From what I have read, you just can't do real time 24 bit color animation
so you need a single frame recorder, so you can do your animations smoothly.
Which is fine by me, is the video output very good?

5) any comments on the bundled software? does anythign else support it out there?

if you'd rather e-mail me, that's fine but I am sure lots of people would
like to hear user's thoughts on this amazing turned-john-sculley's head
package.


hell for the price of a toaster, I couldnt buy a Mac Color system.. power to
the people...
