Oh jeez.  Sorry to hear about your trouble, MyCat.  But I do agree too.  SM impressed
me with this roll out, especially the surprise of the release which made me
feel like I was part of a big event.  Very, very cool, imo.  As well as the ongoing
communications with customers here and elsewhere.

Hmmm.  Sorry to hear that, joster.  You've probably looked at all this already, but
I tried finding something on SM that might be helpful.

And FWIW, I started out using Poser 7 on a Dell notebook that was already practically
overflowing, had only 2 ram to start with, as well as a so-so card.  And I was able
to render the stuff I wanted as long as I didn't pack too many figures into my scenes.
I've since upgraded, but I'd planned on doing that anyway even before discovering
Poser.

I hope this all works out fast for you.
