Um, how about using a single PC to replace the farm of amigas?

For many Amigans this would take the magic away. It is just to prove that such a task can still be done on our aging hardware. I dont see why not, as long as you have multiple amigas or/and the time/patience.

The software of choice was of course NewTek Toaster / Flyer. I'm not aware of anyone still using the AMIGA in such a manner today so your project might be interesting to watch.

I dont know about render farms, but there are professionals who still use Amigas in this fashion. Take for example that french animation movie, that got actually very good reviews which was found to have been at least partially drawn using a old amiga.

Here is the link: imdb
