Amiga Technologies need to do some advertising, in order to
re-establish the Amiga's image. They must not do the error of
selling the Amiga as 'yet another multimedia computer'. There
are hundreds, if not thousands of other brands doing just this.
The future of the Amiga lies in the niche market, not in the
mainstream, which is occupied by companies whose budget exceeds
ATech's one by far.
The picture in this archive is the kind of advertisement I
would like to see from ATech. It shows some hippos in some
brown, muddy river which nobody would possibly enter without
being forced to. The hippos are the personification of the
mainstream PC's : slow, with a dinosaur-like look who 'float' in
the dark muddy river, the mainstream. Below this picture is
written : 'Amiga. Not really mainstream.' (The font I used
does not suit the picture perfectly, however.)
This is my first attempt to do some kind of advertisement,
I hope you like it. If you have any comments or remarks,
positive or negative, do not hesitate to contact me at the
address mentioned below. Job offers are also welcome ;)
The quality of the picture is fairly low, due to the space-
saving quality-reduction of JPEG encoding. The GIF-original is
over 230k long, while the JPEG'ed version only takes up 34k
of valuable disk space.
The original photograph was found on Aminet as
(pix/fauna/safari17.jpg), the font used for the text was
CG Palacio, which is © COmpugraphic Corporation.
