I just got my BYTE, and while it talks about the standalone version version based on the A2000, it ends with this sentence: "A company spokesperson said that Newtek is talking with Apple about making the Video Toaster available as a Mac accessory." That could mean sticking an Apple label on the A2000 case, but I doubt it. More likely, Newtek would create a true Mac version... mostly because if they don't, someone else surely will. - kev
