BTW, I've heard somewhere that the VT was used to do the CG for Babylon5, is this true? Surely B5 was after the Amiga was already dead...
Foundation Imaging did the effects shots with Lightwave initially; the Toasters in the A2000s and 3000s they used were there as "hardware dongles"; all the other normal image compositing was done traditionally (not with the Toaster). They did it because they were on a comparative shoestring budget.
After the pilot was picked up, fortuitously NewTek gave up trying to sell Lightwave and the Toaster only as a package and Foundation switched to NT running on Alpha systems using LW over there exclusively.
