Video Toaster!
 
I just got a full video toaster system today. :D

Amiga 2500, Accelerator card, TBC-1, TBC-IV, and Toaster 2000 card, monitor, keyboard, and mouse.

Fully working.

Who else has used one?

I have a friend that has like 4 A4000T's with Toaster systems and a big stack of 2500's so I can get parts if I need it.

That's pretty cool. As I posted over yonder, I used one in high school back in the '90s for Cable Communications class.

Can you post pics? I'd also like to see the inside, if that's possible.

Ahh memories. It was a sad day for me back when I redid my resume and deleted the part about Video Toaster experience. It was a fun system to use and I always appreciated the Amiga platform. I always preferred the Amiga 4000's over the 2000's. and Workbench 3.1 was unique. I wish that Commodore and the Amiga would have stayed around longer.

Cool stuff. Didn't they use Video Toaster for the effects in Babylon 5 :scratch2:

That's what I remember.

I have an Amiga 1000, 3000, and 4000. I like the 3000 and it's been running as my answering machine for at least a couple of decades. The only failures have been the power supply fan and the battery.

I always wanted a VideoToaster. I wouldn't have time to play with one now though.

Amiga fanatics haven't given up yet though.

I forgot the RAM card in a drawer at school on friday, so I will post pix of that tomorrow when I bring it home.

I also have not put the other TBC into the 2500 yet.
