Vance, Yes, I like tutorials too, and for the same reason, most of the time. The problem here is that I'm NOT an artist, and I need to learn the art of 3-D rendering and animation. It's more than knowing what all the gadgets and icons do — it's knowing how to make art. You don't get that from a tutorial (well, maybe some do, but not the rest of us). What would be beyond price for me would be a week long course with someone like Louis Markoya or someone else of that caliber, who could teach not only how Imagine works but how to create art with it. They're two different things. Frankly, a week wouldn't be long enough. But it would at least be a good start. I'll defer to others on the 3000/3000T questions — I'm still using an accelerated 2000 myself. As to the switchable video slot — I don't know if it could be done electronically — extending all those lines into another box isn't as easy as it might seem at first. But I bet there'd be some interest in the idea, if it could be done. Certainly those who have held off on a Toaster because they already have a 2000S (or vice versa) would be interested… Pete
