Alan, thanks a lot for your suggestions. Things become more and more precisely. It turns out I will get a second PC (pentium120?) with a better modeller I have at the moment. And I will get the DTP my customers are using (corel and quarkexpress) first; then an Indy. The prospectives and customers I have, who want me to develop products to be manufactured, won`t take my CAD-datas to use them in their manufacturing systems at the moment (quite use a 3D-Cad). So I need to bring them renderings and blueprints. If I could bring them raw CAD-models in addition (e.g. wireframes, meshes or faces) the better it were. But they are always responsible for their moulds and the productionprocess etc. The first priority for me is to get the most advanced modeller on which platform ever. Needs to be reiable, fast (to use if you once get familiar with it) and at lowest prize as possible. In addition it should run on PC and Indy, I guess; because similiar userinterfaces on different platforms is good. And for me there even some other reasons to have an Indy. For instance lightwave runs on the pentium and on Indy. Or am I wrong? Keep in contact. Norbert
