Thanks much for the hands on feedback! The improved redraw speed alone will be a godsend (_&_ no more flicker-mode, yay!). Electric Image is really cool. (I didn't realize they used it to do the Intel inside commercials! :^) Unfortunately, at the price they ask ($8K), I'm going to have to find a client to buy it for me. When you move objects from LightWave to Pixar, I assume you lose all surface attributes? (Have they told you how much this RenderMan you're testing will cost, and when it'll be shipping?) Given the way Layout and Modeler seem to be coded, I'd be curious to see how they port it over to a windowed interface like the Mac – (Short of putting the current UI into a single window. Kind of obtuse, but not unexpected.) Keep On Toastin' Erik Flom
