I'm kind of lucky; at the TV Station where I work, we have a 4000/Toaster
setup and it is SWEET!  We are (hopefully) upgrading to a full Flyer
system in a couple of months.  My boss is tired of tape machines finally.

Have you kept up with the Amiga scene lately?  OS 4.0 is due out in
November!  It's a developer's version, an interim for the anticipated
Amiga OS 5 next year!

I'm selling 233 Mhz IBM Systems (complete with monitor for $699 plus
shipping, btw) to raise money to get one!
