But you know what would be REALLY cool? If, instead of relying completely on CPU load, if the renderers took advantage of Graphics Cards. 3D graphics applications? Not really, they are just 2D, even the BEST of them (Lightwave, Studio Max, Cinema 4D) Granted, not every computer has a graphics card, but you'd think that Rendering programs would take advantage of the ridiculous power behind the Nvidia and ATI cards. Direct-X 9 controls could, and SHOULD, be easily incorporated into renderers, with just a couple of options to turn their benefits on or off. There's simply NO excuse for preview modes that don't equal Unreal, or Unreal II quality. Silly, but a good GeForce or Radeon these days is more powerful by itself than a Pentium 3 ever was. Ever!
