Gary, I'm thinking of foregoing a pentium buy and moving to an Alpha 233Mhz workstation with NT. Is the current word that only the Intel NT version of 3DS will be available? I can hold off the purchase, but I'd like to know your opinion on how much longer it will take for the Alpha version. Is this a difficult thing to do once the Intel NT version is done, or is it a recompiling issue? I'm really looking forward to seeing the new product at Siggraph – I just want to make sure my money goes toward hardware that I'll have software for! Thanks! -Glen PS. You're probably due for a LONG vacation after Siggraph… Good luck with the prep work before the show!

Jonas said it all… – G PS: Vacation? No kidding, I've got a huge one coming up after Siggraph… I get the entire weekend of the 12th and 13th off! (and considering that I haven't had a day off in two months, that's something to look forward to!)

Gary, Congrats! MAX was awesome – I'm really looking forward to it. Sorry about the reiteration of the Alpha question at the Adesk party… but thanks for the answer! Happy VACATION! -Glen
