(I think this is a subset of your comment rather than an extension but Babylon 5 reference ;)
- vidarh 5y agoThat'd be Video Toasters. But Newtek ditched Amiga support in '95, and by late 90's PCs or DEC Alphas would cream the Amigas for the render farms. Even Babylon 5 switched the render farms for seasons 4 and 5. Not impossible someone would still want to replace individual systems in a render farm rather than upgrading, but given the potential speed gains it'd seem like a poor choice.
