>> What type of displays for the slave units, master units, and the >> server, can I get away with? PMJI, but you can "get away with" a plain vanilla VGA card in each case. Of course, that is not the "best" setup. If you are using the PAR for I/O of animations, you can "get by" without a frame buffer (although I would recommend one like the Illuminator Pro or AT Vista in one machine for good NTSC output to preview specific frames). For net rendering, you will likely set the display to NULL, so it doesn't matter what graphics card is in each of those. However, if these machines will EVER serve any other purpose, get yourself a good PCI or VLB hi-res/hi-color SVGA card. Others here may have some recommendations.
