I work at home. Two A2000 toasters trying to (scream?) 24-hrs a day.
Just to add my support to this thread, I stand behind previous posts
describing an upgradable system that might begin at around
$5,000-7,000. Begin with one or two RISC processors, and adequate
RAM to use out-of-the box. Slots for additional processors/RAM. In
terms of "ceilings", I'm not a hardware engineer so I won't try to
tell you what your own limits are. The announced configuration from
last summer sounds like enough power to solve almost anyone's
rendering hangups.
Also, the possibility to open power up for use with other rendering
software (e.g. VistaPro, AdPro). From previous posts, I believe this
would change the entire concept of the hardware, and also falls under
the ultimate judgement of NewTek. Wishful thinking on my part….
