NewTek hasn't supported the Amiga since before the turn of the century.  The old Amiga version of Lightwave isn't even recognisable as Lightwave anymore and of course VT(5) isn't an affordable toy like the old VT (which is pretty much useless in 2010) was and is really aimed at a different market.  Tricaster, SpeedEdit and 3D Arsenal never were an Amiga product.  What's the point, beyond nostalgia for a time long past?

Why not expand it out, Avid, Final Cut, Premiere are all brilliant programs and get used far more than NewTek products in video production.

Without HD and having analogue to digital residue, and you need A/D converters for all your digital live sources as well....  It's a tricaster in the same way as a Model T is a family car.

I know of at least one NewTek Employee that has a Toaster 4000. Theres a guy in there that has an Amiga shirne they even ave the original Los Gatos Amiga sign. I've seen Video Toaster Flyers in there too.

Take an A3000 or A4000 with a toaster 4000 and a DV firewire to analog bridge connected to a PC laptop running Adobe Flash media encoder 3 and you have yourself an $800-1000 tricaster setup as long as you don't need DDR capability.
