Post by: save2600 on October 02, 2009, 10:37:13 PM: has anyone seen this BS yet? If you can get through the schlocky "stylish" camera work, could someone please tell me what their marketing division was thinking??

I'm sorry, but I'm pretty certain if I'd been at that meeting, seeing what I'd just pi^^^d away that year on my PR budget, I'd have had the person trying to sell this drek taken out the back and shot as an example.

Pathetic.

I might even hook up a webcam and stuff and show people that the gap in functionality between an Amiga running OS3.1 and a PC running Windows 7 (not that I have one) isn't as large as the gap in hardware specifications would suggest. MS Paint vs DPaint action!
