Harvey, We've written Ani Pro drivers that support the VRAM and the Ultra. While the Ultra will speed up AutoCAD quite a bit, it won't do very much for Animator Pro. I would be very surprised if you noticed any meaningful speed improvement at all. The reason for this is because Ani Pro spends most of its time drawing individual pixels on the screen, and the Ultra isn't any faster at this than your VRAM. Brad Ek [Panacea Inc.]
