I'm reading an interview with the CEO of Media 100 at:
http://www.digitalvideoediting.com/2002/11_nov/features/cw_molinari_int.htm

Most of the review probably won't interest most people, but one part
jumped out and that was him mentioning Suns, Amiga, Vax, DMS, Multibus,
RT-11 and OS-9. 

"And that should be appealing to Amiga users. It should be appealing to
people who use Solaris on Sun workstations, it should be appealing to
people who use Cray supercomputers, it should be appealing to people who
still own and use DMS on Micro VAXs, it should be appealing to people
who use Multibus computers from Intel, it should be appealing to people
who use RT-11s, to people who use OS 9, who use DOS -- it should be
appealing to people who use any kind of computer ever made!! "

Frankly, I'm not sure how many people using Multibus's or RT-11 still
are going to be excited about 10bit compositing in real time (since I'm
guessing that most don't care about compositing), but it was still cool
to see that he has some history about him.
