San Diego, Academic Computer Center Lines: 14 A while back, someone flamed the "Star-Child" Amiga commercial. Well tonight in the middle of "The Equalizer", a much better commercial aired. It still didn't have any substance, but it did have video! It featured 3D bar-graphs, a car blueprint/CAD thingy, what looked like an animated Deaga (sp?) painting of a ballerina, and of course, "Bounce". What I saw blurred by so fast, I don't recall hearing any audio, but if you haven't seen any Amiga video yet, you might watch for it. I hadn't seen any video of an Amiga, much less a REAL one, so I was fairly impressed. I'll still reserve judgement till I see one "in the flesh", especially considering the comments in this group about flicker. The ad seems to be aimed at high-end yuppies: the ones that didn't fall for the 128k Mac :-). Paul van de Graaf sdcsvax!sdcc7!ln63fkn U. C. San Diego
