I think swade said AS is NOT pulling your chain, I think swade meant it as a friendly "agreemnet phrase", for lack of a better word, lol. Yeah, "Killer"? It's all in the cpu speed if you want to get down to brass tax. A fast cpu does eqaul fast rendering. But, don't forget about FSB...I have a 1.5ghz cpu, my girlfriend has a 1.2 ghz cpu...but Bryce renders TWICE as slow on her computer. FSB, baby, FSB. Oh, I also HIGHLY recommend Windows 2000, Windows XP is also great, but you might want to look into trimming down XP's fat, it uses a LOT of graphical stuff in its gui, stuff that you might want for useful memory when Brycing. I saw a BIG difference when I switched from Windows 98se to 2000 Pro. Good performance jump, and beautiful handling of memory. Ram - you can never have enough. 512mb will work great. 1.5gb is a dream come true. ;o) AS
