Dick van Dyke was a huge proponent of the Amiga. I read somewhere that he even created an effect in Lightwave of a motorcycle explosion for a TV show he was acting in (when the in house effects company couldn't do it due to budgetary contraints).

One of Van Dyke's modern passions is producing 3D computer graphics. He created many of the 3D rendered effects shown in Diagnosis: Murder, and continues to work with LightWave 3D.[/color]
...then I have to disagree with the second sentence. He created ONE small effect for one episode as far as we know. I've edited it.
