infinity10 and  TrekkieGrrrl, you both mention that Poser7 renders faster than Poser6.   I only installed Poser7 a few days ago and, so far, I have tried only to render a few things that Poser6 wouldn't (Poser7 doesn't either).   In your cases, does your hardware have features which Poser7 can exploit, but Poser6 couldn't, or is the improvement all in the software?   I'm interested, because my PC is making occasional ominous "I'm heading-west" noises.   If I'm going to have to replace it eventually, or sooner, I'd like to make the new box capable of using whatever functions Poser7 allows.
