(looks like litst got a new machine!) I use a PowerBookG3 (Pismo) 400mgz with 512 ram, ATIRageProII video. The LCD built in screen is OK for modeling but I hook up a CRT for color-criticle stuff.

I use an PowerMac G4 Dual 450 with 1GB RAM, ATI Rage128 Pro (Yuck), Apple Studio Display 17" Running Mac OSX 10.1.3 and OS 9.2.2. I also use a P3-800 with 384MB Ram and a GeForce 4 Titanium with 128MB RAM. Here's hoping that Carrara Version 2 supports Network Rendering. Paul
