Hold the phone.  Umm, he was kidding.  The Mac wasn't used at all.  So
how would the mac get publicity for 10 amigas, 10 HD's, and 10
toasters (May 1990 Amigaworld, look at the pic:  No macs)????  Or am I
misinterpreting something you're saying.

But that sounds interesting.  A video post-production company...  Hmm.
