Hello, fellow Lightwave/Video Toaster* craftpersons!
We are as opposed to Internet "junk mail" as any of you, and we are NOT saying
anything silly like "you may have already won MILLIONS of dollars" ;-)... We
just wanted to make each of you aware of a beneficial opportunity because we
think many of you share our affinity for Lightwave and the Toaster...
We are establishing a basically not-for-profit "Lightwave/Internet
Discount Club"... We are going to make computer-video-graphics-related
hardware and software available at a price that is just enough above our
costs to cover expenses... simply because we feel that Lightwave holds
tremendous potential for visionaries like "y'all"... and we also know what
it's like to "really need" stuff at a price that won't break you.
The "conditions" for membership in this "Club" are that you: (1) are a legal
Lightwave user, (2) have access to the Internet (which you obviously have,
duhh..., since you're reading this...), (3) are not a reseller, (4) are
willing to handle communications via e-mail, and (5) are enough of a "pro"
that you know how to use what you purchase without the need for CONSTANT
"hand-holding" support. And NO, there's NOT any "membership fee" ;-)
So what will this deal get you? Well, since we don't want to get for-profit
dealers "p-o'ed" by publicly advertising our prices, lets just say, for
example, that you need a certain video effects package that has a MSRP
of $499. The "deal" here is that by being a part of our club, your price
would be about $262 plus s&h. For you non-math-whizzes, that's more or less
half off the list price.
While we are not able to promise the absolute "best price" you can find
_anywhere_, we'll do what we can to beat prices. (However, SOME places are
selling "loss leaders" at below their cost -- which is something we literally
cannot afford to do right now!)
SO... if you qualify as a pro and are SERIOUSLY interested in this and would
like to know more, send an empty e-mail message to "hwswinfo@compvid.com" and
we'll send you the nitty-gritty via reply e-mail as soon as possible.
Best regards,
Luke Montgomery

OK, some brief legaleese stuff since we don't want our good neighbors up the
turnpike at Newtek to be upset with us:
