>>Do you have a particular card in mind for the wishlist? The cards I was thinking about are not out yet. I'm hoping for direct support for the new 3D rendering chips (the Glint, among others I've read about, that are to be integrated into new graphics cards), so that we can enjoy hardware assisted shaded previews of animations in near realtime. I'm sorry, but the R4 previewer doesn't even come CLOSE to near realtime for animations (even on a Pentium it's painfully slow – even in wireframe, I've found it useless on all but the simplest geometry, and it has too many drawbacks to appeal to me). Hopefully, it won't be difficult for 3ds to put these new technologies to good use. David
