Uh? Where do you live? 266 isnt that bad if you keep everything low on polygons. I had 233 MMX P150 Sony Vaio right before I bought this home made 3ghz cpu. It was worth upgrade the CPU for Poser5 but not entirely. I am keeping an eye on quad Opteron to get 256bits processor in total for renderer. I am waiting on E-on, Eovia, and CuriousLabs's announcement if they support 64bits CPUs then I will buy it immediately. I am serious 3D animator. I hogged and maxed the processor and ram several times. If you only want to use Poser for anime. I would recommend poser 3 or 4 which is free in some magazines. And you can get anime doll for $22 dollar. In these versions of poser there is no hair/clothing dynamics. Good luck with ur project.
