   Serious animators have been using the Amiga for 5 years.  Now there are high
   resolution 24 bit boards available.  There are even 32 bit boards currently in
   FCC (24 bits of color + 8 of alpha).  $4000 for a board with 12 bit color and
   4 bits alpha (correct me if I'm wrong) is outrageous, even with an i860 on
   board.

You're wrong.  The NeXT Dimension board is 24 bit color with 8 alpha channels.
