    Show me a $400 laptop that has a 4 input video switcher so that you can switch between 4 live sources.
    I had an A3000 with a Toaster4000 card back in 1993. I had $7K invested in that setup and didn’t even own a car yet.

    The Blade Runner reference at the end just caps it.

    @hannahfontana69 It sure can, but only 20 years later and with a lot more processing power. The Amiga only had a 25 MHz Motorola 68030 32-bit cpu and 16 Megabyte of internal memory. Compared to the multi-core laptops of today running at at least 2Ghz with about 2 to 4 Gigabyte of internal.

    So in terms of efficiency of using hardware resources, the Amiga with Toaster still wins big time. ;)

    @hannahfontana69 Yeah but in 1990, when the VT came out, there was no Adobe Premiere, and there sure as heck weren’t any $400 laptops XD

    I guess they edited out all this guy’s smoke breaks.

  10. hannahfontana69 says:

    A $400 laptop running a pirated copy of Adobe CS5 can outperform the Video Toaster.

    What the hell is at 6:18 hahaha

    @BobocheMaster I wasn’t even alive when it came out, hell they didn’t even sell it in my country, and I love it.

  13. BobocheMaster says:

    This NEVER grows old. Period.

    it still cant be beat live around newtek and they readily admit the Amiga is the best and with this you still cant beat it.

  15. NiteHackr says:

    Realize that this was in the 90s when the PC’s barely had sound and still used DOS. ;) I loved my Amiga.

    I wish I could find this demo. I had them send me the VHS copy WAY back in the day and I have NO idea what happened to it!

    ToasterPaint ?
    ToasterPaint.
    T-T-T-TOASTER PAINT

    this shit is so extreme and homoerotic

  18. VincentGreece says:

    Very good hardware, very good video but narrators sound like in porn movie :-)

  19. tsangc says:

    @Gmancrap I think it’s a Sony CCD-V5000.

  20. analyzingfunny says:

    @RichGilly So let me get this straight….you LIKE cheap ass glue and formaldehyde with paint on it and shit thats crap and wont last but a few years?

  21. analyzingfunny says:

    lol!!!! This is great. I called the 800 number and got this VHS sent to me for free. We were so high and laughfing at this for months. Just couldnt afford it at 4000 plus 1500 plus a 5000 dollar camera at the time. Sure was cool and still is. They sure fucked the big boy good. The toaster guy did something else too what was it?

    I don’t know what’s better, the funny song titles on the title demo bit or “Frankie the Robot” at 6:18, haha.

  24. milkmit says:

    Wow.. I watched this on VHS so many times as a kid that I actually still remember it word for word even after all these years.
