If Amiga can get a killer ap type program for video editing that everyone wants, then it could be the thing to get Amiga going strong again. Editing videos is the current big thing nowadays, so if Amiga had the best one, then everyone will want an Amiga. Hopefully, people don't start saying "Oh, Amiga, that's just for making movies", like they did years ago, instead back then it was games. Which was stupid because all anyone ever bought IBM's for was games.
*Sigh*. The concept of the killer app is
DEAD. Dee, ee, ay, dee. With stock standard hardware, and very similar concepts of programs interact with each other and the underlying hardware, there is literally nothing left for one platform to distinguish itself from another. Add to that that any VE software requires raw CPU power which the Amiga will never deliver (cheaply), and you are out of the competition. It's touching, and somehow tragically naive, to see people so loyal to the name, but for every single one of them, there will be thousands doing the same on a much better equipped PC.
