Gary: The two big issues with NT are: recompiling the program for other supported processors, and being written fully multithreaded. If they're not recompiled (couple files in the code need to be tweaked), it won't run on other processors than the one it was compiled on. If it's not totally multithreaded, it won't take advantage of multiprocessor systems. I doubt either will be an issue with 3DS. ASOFT/YG are with-it enough to do both. The main thing right now is getting them to admit that NT is definately what R5 will be out on so we can get on with our hardware upgrades, and plans for the future. JNJ
