1179.1 | What is NewTek? | MAADIS::WICKERT | MAA DIS Consultant | Wed Feb 17 1988 12:27 | 6 |

Is this something I should be aware of? What is NewTek?
Thanks,
Ray

| NewTek is the creator of the DigiView color digitizing
hardware/software package responsible for all those lovely naked
gir...er, digitized HAM photos floating around.
NewTek also puts out DigiPaint, the 4096 color (at one time) painting
program; and DigiF/X, a special effects/animation program.
I picked up the NewTek demo disks a few months back at the Software
Shop. It is arguably the most impressive demo yet of combined
digitized sound, HAM animation, and special effects yet seen on
the Amiga. I saw a film clip of SIGGRAPH where people were standing
around gawking at this puny $600 A500 running the NewTek demo in
the midst of Pixars, Apollos and Suns. It's that good.
Oh, I almost forgot... the NewTek disks were my first official
introduction to the SCA virus.

1179.7 | Is TRACKER available? | NOBHIL::BODINE_CH | | Mon Feb 29 1988 14:15 | 7 |
| Does somebody have TRACKER uploaded on the NET somewhere? If not,
is there some kind soul willing to upload it?
I searched the notes file but couldn't find a pointer to it.
Thanks,
Chris

I just got a copy of this demo from a friend. It really
is incredible. I've had the machine for more than two years and
this is probably the best demo I've seen. My friend has a
flicker-fixer and a Taxon Multisync monitor and it really looked
fantastic on that setup.
If you've got the inclination I'd recommend downloading this one
from one of the areas mentioned earlier.

1179.11 | NewTek Demo #2? | LOWLIF::DAVIS | That's not a BUG, it's a FEATURE! | Wed Aug 03 1988 18:34 | 4 |
| Someone told me they saw a NewTek Demo #2 on GEnie. Has anyone else heard
of it? I agree, it's the best all-around demo I've seen yet!
