It was Parallax that was demoing the live video system.  The system
uses Interactive Systems' 386/ix operating system with Interactive's
X11 server which has specific extensions for the live video.  The
current "video card" that drives the monitor and accepts the video
signal is actually a box with its own power supply that sits on top
of the 386 pc and costs about $8000.  So its really a video processing
system with a 386 cpu as a peripheral.  There is also a VME bus version
of this (4 board set), but I don't know of any other servers which have
the live video enhancements.
