Does anyone have any recommendations for a dual pentium mobo? Timothy <Pixel Pusher> NVision Inc. & Digibotics

Timothy; While I was sitting in the Autodesk booth between demonstrations, someone handed me a flyer (I don't recall if it was an Autodesk employee) for a CompuAdd 133MHz Dual Pentium System. It is only a spec sheet and photo. No prices on it. The phone number at the bottom is 1-800-765-7603. They are in Austin, Texas, and no local numbers are provided. They have a 30 day money back guarantee (according to the add). I am not affiliated with CompuAdd, and only pass this on because you asked. I don't have one, and have no experience with them. Hope this helps a little. I don't know if Micron sells one, but I have heard good things about Micron. Dennis

Hi Dennis, <<.. for a CompuAdd 133MHz Dual Pentium System..>> That's the model that Gary used for the main stage presentation. jonas[adesk]

Jonas; Having "spoken" and "listened" to you and other Yost'ers for years, it was great to finally know what all of you look like. So if I see any of you on the street, I can get an autograph. 🙂 >> <<.. for a CompuAdd 133MHz Dual Pentium System..>> I thought it was, but somehow I thought it was a 120Mhz dual pentium system at the show. So the CompuAdd offer would be even faster. WOW! While I have your attention, from all I can gather in the literature I picked up, (the "Extra! Extra! Extra" newsletter, and the "Show Specials" flyer) the upgrade price from 4 to MAX will be about $990.00. Is that correct? I didn't hear anyone mention this at the show, but I was in a daze anyway. If the price will be any higher than this, it might be wise to purchase another version of 3DS now to get it and one of the plug-ins mentioned at the best price going, plus the upgrade to MAX for $495. Thanks for filling us in on all the great offers. Dennis

Hi Dennis, << $495..990?>> The only number I know of is the $495 if initiatedbefore MAX ships. I do not know how much higher the price will be after we ship. Please contact your dealer for more details. jonas[adesk]

>> $495 if initiated before MAX ships. Only if before? The following quote is from one of the MAX library files under the heading Pricing and Availability: "All 3D Studio R4 customers, including those who purchase the product between now and 3D Studio MAX's ship date, will be able to purchase a 3D Studio MAX seat for a suggested retail price (SRP) of US$495."

Jeffrey, The $495 price only applies if the MAX migration is "reserved" before First Customer Ship of MAX. Kevin Krell – Computer Support Associates

Hi Jonas, I read the following too: >>All 3D Studio R4 customers, including those who purchase the product between now and 3D Studio MAX's ship date, will be able to purchase a 3D Studio MAX seat for a suggested retail price (SRP) of US$495.<< Can you please tell me, if this price and the announcements in time are the same in germany? In the past it seems, that Mr. Hoefler from Adesk Germany needs more money than his friends on the other side of the ocean! 🙁 Greetings Claus

Try AMAX Engineering in Fremont California. Sorry I don't have their number. I do know however that they make a dual processor machine. Will
