Any by any of a chance know? I am specing right now to build a 2xquad core server system and i am curious if vue can handle it. I have a quad core right now and it uses all threads.

Anybody knoweth wether vue6Inf/vue7compl fully take advantage of standard 8-core Mac ?
I look foreward to buy one, if so.

 Yes Vue Infinite uses all 8 cores for rendering.  But for some operations such as ecosystem population, it only uses one core.

Hyperview doesn't work very well on the MacPro with OSX10.5.  It only renders to BMP and it doesn't seem to recognize older macs running OSX 10.4.  But, if you have older Macs, then you can use them to render from and then all is good and well.  Hopefully Vue will fix this in an update before Vue 7?  Its a "feature" that supposed to work.

I am not sure about hypervue and older versions of OS X, but I have been able to render animations to TIFFs using hypervue and rendercows across several Macs (Macbook Pros and Macbooks) running 10.5 with no problems.

awsome. WIll be a watercooled system. Right now i am using a single quad core overclocked to 3.9ghz. 2 quad cores running at that speed should subtract a bit off of render time.
