I am in the market for a new computer system and am quite overwhelm by the choices (PC, Mac, PowerPC, workstation, etc.). In particular, I want to use this system to run 3D modeling and animation software. I have read some articles about the PowerPC and that it is well suited for graphic intensive applications. However, the main advantage comes when running programs specifically written for the PowerPC. Does anyone have information as to whether Autodesk has plans to release a PowerPC version of 3D Studio? Will there be any performance gain in running 3D Studio under the PowerPC versus a 486 PC?
