No, really. TV output has *created* a whole market for the Amiga: desktop
video. Apple and Microsoft are scrambling to catch up, while advertising that
they're already ahead (which is the sort of lie you can expect from them these

Most people where? At colleges, where you have a built-in pool of free system

first thing we have to do is start ripping that software out! You had to do
the same, which pretty much proves my point.
