I just bought an i7 rig myself.  I'm still waiting for it to arrive, mind you.  920 processor, 6GB of Ram... I can't wait!!!   Damn company had said it would be ready last week, but I guess holidays delay everything.

I have Poser 7 and Poser Pro.  I guess I'll install Pro on the new rig, thanks for the info svdl!

With that and my old single processor AMD 2600 and an AMD Dual Core laptop, I figure I will have a pretty nice little poor man's renderfarm for Carrara (does Poser pro do netowrk rendering?  I can't remember.)

Ah... the possibilities... yet on Monday i go back to work and will have no time.
