I'm currently considering buying an Amiga for (primarily) video work. To start with, I'm planning on purchasing the following: A2000HD (50 Meg HD and 8 Meg RAM) 1084 (monitor) New Tek's Video Toaster Presently, this is all my budget can afford (even with the educational discount!). What I'd like to know is if you Amiga people think this will be adequate to start with. This is a first cut at a system, so I'm open to suggestions of things which I didn't list or things which I shouldn't have listed. Specifically, I'd like to know if this system is a good base for future expansion. In case you haven't guessed by now, I'm quite a novice in the Amiga world, so any comments are welcome. :-) Reply directly or post as you see fit!

That is a very good system to start with... probably the best. You WILL need another monitor for use with the Toaster, two monitors if you got 'em. Then an accelerator sometime down the road would be smart.... Best of luck... -M. Powell-
