"So that tells me one thing; that you're going to need some serious high-end power in your machine to run it in that mode." OpenGL takes advantage of accelerated 3d hardware, and passes a lot of the rendering onto the vidcard itself; Poser still has the CPU handle all of that, which is why it runs so dog-assed slow right now. From what I've seen of the demo, an Nvidia GeForce2 chipset card (about $30 nowadays) or better should be able to handle it without slowdown or incident. As for CPU horsepower and RAM requirements, I'd prolly match it up with Poser 5's requirements if I were to hazard a guess. However, I'm not sure on the exact requirements as of yet... let me go see what they've got in teh way of Hardware come Monday. /P
