It's in there. Listed as CD-TV. Only thing I can see they forgot is the 1500, although we never got them in the states.

Hum,
i thought it was a secret?
Who blabbed? :-?

Who blabbed?
I did. :ranting:
Why? I was being persecuted!! :-D

from the link:
Since 1995 a group of valiant programmers started AROS Project, which aimed at creating a multiplatform OS with certain charateristics.
Hey bloodline, seems you did a great job lobbying by them! :-)

let's not forget the great man, himself:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jay_Miner
Video Toaster was used to render the space ships in the first season of Babylon 5, and were involved in numerous other major movie productions without ever being credited
they got an special effects emmy for that 1st year, btw.

And guess what's the kid playing? TURRICAN!
A wise choice :-D
But wasn't Turrican made in 1990? How could the photo shoot be made in 1988? :-?

IIRC, That was Turrican II in 1990, is it not?
Good day to all Amigans! :-D

Wikipedia kicks arse. Fantastic source of information and unlimited knowledge!

And the best thing: if you spot something lacking or faulty, just edit it yourself!

No, Turrican was released in 1990, so that photo caption is incorrect. Check it here, a screenshot from the game menu:

And don't forget that there's an Amiga Wiki here (http://yourdreamnet.co.uk/cgi-bin/wiki.pl), and I think there's a MorphOS Wiki somewhere :-D
