(exit lurk mode) :-) Media 100 is still around, although it is sort of dying off. It's changed hands a few times in recent years, but it does still have some work done on it. They've also recently released a software only version of the system, with no special hardware boards needed. Not to hype my own site or anything, but Media 100 is one of the systems (Along with Avid, Apple's Final Cut, and others) that gets good coverage at Creative Cow (http://forums.creativecow.net). You might want to take a look there before making any purchasing decisions. (return to lurk mode) -- Eric Bliss systems design and integration, CreativeCow.Net -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
