Tom Petty's video 1987

You can see the juggler and the C64 and Amiga but I can't tell what the other two machines are...

Any ideas?

Aren't they Amiga's, too? I wouldn't be surprised if the video was done with video toaster. After the juggler, there are some other Amiga specifical shots. No mistaking the gadgets on that drawing program.

I'd say : C64, C128, some PC, A1000
1. Make an announcment.
2. Wait a while.
3. Check if it can actually be done.
4. Wait for someone else to do it.
5. Start working on it while giving out hillarious progress-reports.
6. Deny that you have ever announced it
7. Blame someone else

I thought one of them was an Atari but I am not sure, it looks all Commodore stuff :-D

If the video was made in 1987 with a toaster, I'd be impressed, unless Tom knew Brad Carvey and he let him use the wire wrap prototype hardware.
