DMFW asked - "Does anyone know if the software takes native advantage of hyperthreading or SMP if it's available?" It sure does, run as many cores or CPU's as you want ;) "What about graphics cards?" Well, I would tend to go for nVIDIA based chip sets. From experience of other apps (that rely heavily on OpenGL) I tend to be a bit shy of ATI cards (well the cards are good, it's just the drivers that seem to be flakey :/ If you have the money go for a nVIDIA Quadro chipset...but it's not essential. In order of priority of important features: CPU, memory, graphics card and then 64bit hardware compatability (64bit is coming and it is probably best to make the jump now, and most native 32bit software will run on it).
