>>Can I still run both?<< It's obvious I have opened a pandora's debate box. I can only hope autodesk views a windows version of 3DS as an inevitable upgrade and not as another product. This would set the tone for most vendors. It doesn't look good considering auto-cad for dos and auto-cad for windows. I personally plan on using only one version of 3DS be it Dos or Windows. I have no interest in going back and forth. I think it comes down to how much money autodesk wants from its customers. If it is to much…! I used lightwave for a couple of years before I used 3DS. If they want to nickel and dime their customers to death I have no problem switching back. Especially since we just acquired a 830+ mip Windows NTdigital video server I'm planning on using for rendering on lightwave. It's been a fun John! I think its time to let this one go. 🙂 Scott Lunsford Tennessee Production Center, Inc. P.S. There are add-ons that work with quicken be it dos or windows. And they usually come in the same box for one price.

I agree that it would be nice if they dropping the DOS version entirely, and focused on the Windows version. You could use any Windows / NT server for render farms…

We finally agree! I suspect we wanted the same thing all along. I am especially looking forward to the 3D subsystem acceleration in Win 95 & NT. Now, I'm going to complicate things and say I am thinking about moving from Windows to OS/2 Warp. At least until I get a good stable pre-release of Win95. I want to move frame to my par in the background. It's almost like being on the Amiga again. It's been good talking to you as usually, but I have female companion requesting my presences. Scott
