Are you talking about a production CG (keyed over video) or a
bulletin-board CG?

For production CGs, other posters mentioned Inscriber or Compix,
currently made. You can get lots of older cheapies: Quanta Microgen,
Quanta Q-5 and others. Or some rinky-dink Amiga-Commodore setup. Or
even the super cheap Videonics units.

For bulletin boards, Scala was mentioned. There are also old
TexScan/CompuVids that can do "regions", including crawls.

If you're interested, we have an old Chyron that will do a bug and
crawl, but we want 20k for it.
