Vista invented the live-venue control concept by writing unique code that served to enhance the capabilities of other manufacturers' hardware by optimizing it for live events. This approach completely changed the way events were done. Vista then began creating its own hardware solutions to match the capabilities of the control software. Within a relatively short time Vista hardware and software set a new standard in the live event industry.
Famous quotes containing the words vista and/or systems:
“After climbing a great hill, one only finds that there are many more hills to climb. I have taken a moment here to rest, to steal a view of the glorious vista that surrounds me, to look back on the distance I have come. But I can rest only for a moment, for with freedom comes responsibilities, and I dare not linger, for my long walk is not yet ended.”
—Nelson Mandela (b. 1918)
“The only people who treasure systems are those whom the whole truth evades, who want to catch it by the tail. A system is just like truth’s tail, but the truth is like a lizard. It will leave the tail in your hand and escape; it knows that it will soon grow another tail.”
—Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev (1818–1883)
