(grins) I don't REALLY think you're being childish, just wanted to throw some fuel on the fire! That totally sucks about your stuff, I hope you get set up sometime soon... In the meantime, infiltrate someone's legacy office setup with Bryce, and try to keep rendering, Drac! I'm rendering a scimitar right now on the side-room desk Pentium 2/266, I just added 64 more MB, for a total OF 128 MB of SDRAM!!!!!!
