[comp.sys.amiga] good press

Forgive me if this old news,
but the dec/jan issue of 'Computer Pictures' just wandered in.
This rag seems targeted at the high tech corporado Audio/Videot
types and says nice things about 'The One True Computer' in two
articles.

"Low Cost 3-d Modeling Coming of Age" p23, by Steve Polilli:
    "...below the $12k range, especially using a M*c or Commodore
platform, ... but check rendering time   " goes on to say that M*c
has the lion's share of the market but that Amiga is considered a
good buy that still delivers quality. He notes that "Commodore has
done a better job of marketing the machine overseas than
domestically."

More pleasing is
"Amiga: Designed with Video in Mind" p27, by Suzan Prince"
    "Some wags call the Amiga a working man's video graphics box,
because it would be hard to spend more than $8k for a loaded
version... (Commodore) never dreamed of the unit's early and enduring
acceptance among video production and communications professionals."
3 solid pages of hardware and application discussion follows.
