MacBook Intel 2G dual core.

The word "Mac" is good enough for me (dual G5 here) - I don't think the Intel v. PPC thing will make that much diff. It's kind of a very nice benefit from owning a Mac... if it works on one, it's liable to work on 99.999% of the rest of 'em. :) -- > Quote - The only problem with work arounds are that companies don't feel they need to fix something if they can get enough users to except it and defend the initial problem with said work around.

Dunno... a lot of resistance that I find in the professional world (at least computers and networking-wise) has to do with defending all that initial investment in the now-inefficient way of doing something. Either the previous solution was overpriced, too unique and proprietary to have any alternatives, or simply was purchased/implemented in ignorance... or the environment has changed enough to make the existing process/solution cumbersome. It's always a bit costly at first to change solutions, mostly spent in time and effort at figuring out the new way of doing it. OTOH, once you're there, and your workflow and prduction is geared towards the newer methods, then the old is seen for what it is. As per Carrara v. Poser, I dunno yet - I'd have to use C6 first to tell for certain. OTOH, I already know the deficiencies within Poser, D|S (by itself) and other apps. If C6 solves a large chunk of those without too much of a learning curve, and while using most of my existing files, then cool - I'll flip right to it without ever looking back (I'm practically there now; I use Vue more often than I use Poser nowadays). /P
