(and a silly wish for 1.4) Keywords: magazine, ads, congrats Message-ID: <2796@cuuxb.ATT.COM> Date: 12 May 89 22:00:36 GMT Distribution: na Organization: AT&T - Data Systems Group Lisle, IL Lines: 19 Hey! Great job, you advertising-type folks, for the great looking ads in this month's (and last month's) Electronic Musician. Real nice spread, professional looking (more so than the rougher quality "multi-tasking mind" hype), to the point, and yet with diverse topics. I also like they way you managed to fit it in the middle of the audio workstation article. Here's all this interesting high-tech expensive whoop-dee-doo gear, and then, what's this? A cool ad for an affordable Amiga, that can do what? Make sounds. Play 'em. Do video. And animation. Pretty nice! (OK, for the silly wish: could we have a WriteRastLine(rp, x, y, n, buf) subroutine that might effectively replace a whole bunch of WritePixel(rp, x, y, p) calls? And maybe even a WriteRastColumn(...) for spectrogram type stuff. Would there be any benefit in putting it "your" code versus in "our" code? Thanks!) Mike Hall
