Is It Sally or Mark…. Niiiicccceeee system and you got one like it at home???? Well If I can ever save some money I'll start equiping at home It seems the best way of experimenting.. albeit costly way.. I still am waiting for my ATC to go for the $50 upgrade to ANI 1.3…And besides I was told today that t takes a month for the college to process an order!! I mean just get it out the door. and then you have to wait for the material… My condolences on the budget cuts.. I guess no one votes NDP next time eh? I have never figured out the Ontario system. How do the colleges fit into grade 13 high school and University. Is it purely technical training. BTW we as in the midists of a suposed restructuring of the CEGEP (college) system here in Que. but what they have announced thus far seems like a joke. We haven't gotten into detailed configuration yet we are just ballparking. Our priority is to create a lab for teaching MM as well as having one system that could do the whole shooting match. Hopefully live video, animated 3ds, sound and music, still images with photo retouchnig. One of the ideas that Nancy Fulton presented at our MM session in SC was the idea of providing the services. Hey ya got all this expensive equiptment sitting around and If someone needs it… rent to to them! The idea of actually renting the whole lab say to someone who needed to render an animation of say 1000-2000 frames, overnight. Doesn't cost you anything and it would have to be a god send for them…. Thanks for the config information this will be helpful as we havn't gotten quite this detailed as of yet. Sorry I can't recprocate about our setup so far our setup is my computer and a CD ROM on another that I have occasional access to, BTW thanks for using Matrox, they are a Montreal Company. Hey!
