out of curiosity, where else have amiga's been seen in the movies?  offhand,
all I can think of is _The Disorderlies_  where one gets mangled by a Fat Boy,
and _Prince of Darkness_ where one of the researchers is using it to help
translate an old text.  neither of these movies show the amiga showing off in
any capacity, but heck...  at least I recognized them!  :-)
