I am soliciting real-life experiences from AutoCAD and 3dStudio users to assist me in a debate over the cost-effective merits of networked PCs for an architectural design/animation environment versus 'big-silicon,' i.e., SGI Indy or Sparc workstations. I have a client who is struggling with this decision at this time. This individual is an architect who finally wants to move to CADD and do big-time architectural renderings and animations up to 10-15 minutes in length! I would appreciate any input from those who have dealt with workstations and can share their experiences with me (be they gory or glory). I will be meeting this individual this coming Friday, so I would appreciate a quick response.
