Remember when the Amiga came out. It was like the mac with colors, but not much software.
There was a ton of software out there, but the marketing sucked. Then the Toaster came out and it got real expensive. Lots of MIDI, productivity, graphics and productivity out there. I used Pagemaker (Aldus?), Sculpt 3D and a bunch of flight sim stuff. Some digitizing also. Had a VCR with a digital still that worked great with the digitizer.
