Mike, >> I have assumed that the majority of the user base, (almost all of it) >> would not have access to this stuff. At a $50K – $100K pricetag, I'm not surprised. Then again, some facilities that spend that much don't have anything left over to purchase an SGI workstation, and would welcome Imagine if they could learn how to use it easily (e.g., classes and seminars being available somewhere) and if they could integrate it into their systems. But that's another chapter. As for the .pict files and alpha channel stuff, that's applicable to much lower end applications than the Avid. From your last messages I have the impression that you're working on a "real" alpha channel anyway, independently of this conversation. How's it looking? Pete
