Dvorak, on pg 105 of PC Magazine "dated" 22 Feb included a section labeled "Whither Amiga? Dept". After a brief history, mentioning 47 patents and commenting the OS was the "diamond in the deal", "the best OS on the market for at least a decade", "It has potential as a controller for various NTSC video applications. The Video Toaster epitomized such use." If updated the Amiga could provide a "reasonable alternative" to the PC and Mac. It would need great advertising ala Steve Jobs. With multitasking and NTSC compatibility Dvorak's thinking "Web TV killer".
