I don't understand that either. Currently, all of my "work" is in learning, learning, and getting more experienced with Poser, C4D, LightWave, and Maya (PLE for now). Actually, something may have just dropped into my lap - nothing like friends in high places with connections. ;0) A friend and I may just be working on setting up render farms and doing some animation stuff for an unnamed big corporation. This is like getting your foot through the door because it's wide open, but when you're not quite certain of your salesmanship skills. I still consider myself a consumate beginner and, if this is what I think it is (Maya on SGI systems), it will require much time and effort to become useful. Time will tell...wish me success. BYS
