Kevin, I am going to be buying another CPU. But what to choose?.. My concern is that I have 600-1200 frame animations that are taking 12 to 24 hours. I currently have a 486/33 36meg ram w/ Wietek always about 400meg free on my 1.6meg HD's. In December 1991 I was telling you that I may by an EISA system in about June or July. You had mentioned that I should wait a little longer before I buy EISA. Is it time yet? <g>. Any other cpu would be helpful. I am looking at the GATEWAY 4DX2-66E EISA or 4DX2-66V VESA local bus. I have heard that Acad12 for WIN does not support the ATI ULTRA that ships with the GATEWAY. I would get a different card. Mostly I was wondering if you had any comments in regards to the EISA vs. VESA local bus issue. Thanks, Stephen
