  • LOL. $4000. How much would one of these models go for today?

  • They can be found on eBay for a few hundred. Once you include the flyer, the computer for the card to sit in, genlocks, video editing decks, cables, fonts not to mention the entire industry behind LW, you can still spend thousands on the setup. But as shown in the video, you probably could pick it up just shy of $700.

  • why does every newtek toaster video on youtube have to have completely trashed sound?

  • alas bryceguy72 is right. However, I wasn't the original converter of the file and I've lost my copies of Revolutions long ago...

  • and all of this was done on a 25 MHz 68030.

    holy shit.

  • A bad workman blames his tools. If someone is a good editor with a good sense of pace, style, and storytelling, they'll be able to create something great on the Toaster or on Premiere.

  • This is why the porn was so cheesy.

  • This was the demo video that got me into video production back in 1993. I have since moved on from this and have had many editing systems since, but still have the Toaster and Amiga in my basement for sentimental reasons.

  • Amiga can still do.

  • The lightwave 3d Part was like porn or something... kinky... xD

    "Like this... or like this(yeah...)" wtf!? seriously... that one thing i don't miss about the 90's xD

  • @hannahfontana69

    Show me a $400 laptop that has a 4 input video switcher so that you can switch between 4 live sources.

    I had an A3000 with a Toaster4000 card back in 1993. I had $7K invested in that setup and didn't even own a car yet.

  • That's Ken Nordine narrating! I love that guy!

  • Yeah... lol

  • The Blade Runner reference at the end just caps it.

  • @hannahfontana69 It sure can, but only 20 years later and with a lot more processing power. The Amiga only had a 25 MHz Motorola 68030 32-bit cpu and 16 Megabyte of internal memory. Compared to the multi-core laptops of today running at at least 2Ghz with about 2 to 4 Gigabyte of internal.

    So in terms of efficiency of using hardware resources, the Amiga with Toaster still wins big time. ;)

  • @hannahfontana69 Yeah but in 1990, when the VT came out, there was no Adobe Premiere, and there sure as heck weren't any $400 laptops XD
