Wabe, I agree with you that there are dangers in this sort of business. The sort of target market I want to go for are the semi-profesional people, not high level comapnies on tight deadlines. I don't intend to make a living off this, just some extra cash to help pay for the renderfarm and to justify the expense to myself, lol. And I don't want to do this full time. I am an animator, so I need the render farm for myself, but I will obviously not use it all the time, so when I am not using it there is no reason I can't let someone else use it. I am sure there must be many paople on this site that have wanted to do something and have cancelled the idea/project because they would not have the processing power to render it in a reasonable timeframe. I got offered seven commercial jobs in May, and I had to turn down four of them because I knew I wouldn't be able to render the amount of video material in three months, even with my five PC render farm. Anyway, it's just an idea at this stage.
