Do you guys agree that so far Bryce has been a Software Renderer only? Meaning it does not use the Processor and its FPU (Floating Point Unit) to do the calculations. Hence the long Render times compared to other Rendering software. Metacreations quick fix for this was to release Bryce Lightning, which allows you to use as many computers you have available in your arsenal for rendering compared to Move 5 which limits you to 5 clients. Bryce Lightning Solution is not practical in the sense most people have a Single PC or Laptop to render on. I hope Bryce 5.5 addresses this issue, a .5 upgrade in revision usualy only addresses minor fixes and additions. Otherwise Bryce v6.0 would probably a more likley candidate to fix a major issue as far as rendering engine.
