When I owned Megabyte Computer Works I sold (and installed) several to the 
State of Illinois' various agencies to use as in-house video production 
facilities. Both the stand-alone Amiga versions and the PeeCee add-ins. The 
PeeCee guys were amazed both at the capabilities of the Toaster and at the 
fact that each add-in version would function as an Amiga and run Amiga 
software and games (especially the games).

I was surprised that some of the shops got any work done at all after 
exploring the gaming capabilities of the Amiga.   Bv)=
