Greg, Thanks for the note. Now for the 64 dollar question… I hate to ask, but I just gotta…well, let me ask it this way… Are there going to be any algorithms that will keep me from running MAX on a DEC Alpha? I have found some great deals on Alpha motherboards, duals, quads, and even an 8-plex. Once its demo'd on a quad 300Mhz Alpha its gonna dominate. I know the official line is Intel only but… I feel the need for speed, especially since I render and rotoscope about 10000 frames a week and I won't even talk about World Builder render times… I though the development team might rethink the Intel thing and hedge its bets what with the P6's Orion SMP chip set having a few bugs. Thanks, Mark
