Well, I've just got back from the Dutch "Efficiencybeurs" (an
office/office automation trade fair) and guess what? I saw both
Gemwrite and Gemdraw running on an ST, as well as Gem version 2.2, and
a number of other Gem programs (Draw, Graph, Cash...).

The version of Gem was obviously a post-Apple version, because there
were no rubber-boxes, or desk-top icons and that sort of thing.

Also at the Beurs was the "Silicon Animation Machine" video digitiser,
which I've mentioned before. It really is amazing. Real time
digitiser, 25 or 30 frames per second (really!), monochrome, 320 x 200
pixels. Really impressive. Only 250 English pounds too.
