- I hate to do this, since I am a NeXT owner, but I would encourage
- you to look at the new Amiga 4000 if you are thinking about
- doing animation and video work. There is a plethora of
- solid modeling/ray tracing software available, as well as
- a whole assortment of video production software AND hardware.
- (If you see the Video Toaster you'll see what I mean).
-
- If you will be doiny ANY development or lots of desktop publishing etc
- then I would advise you to go for the NeXT.
