Hey all - I have a question... more of a survey. How long does/would it normally take you guys to create a 5 second movie of rendered animation? I created a 150 frame clip and choose to render the whole deal... I started it last night at about 11pm, right now it's 8:30AM and 32 frames are rendered... I know it may be my computer but holy crap!!! Only 32 Frames???

I have a Mac - powerbook G4, 1ghz processor/1ghz ram - do any of you guys have specs on a better machine that would at least a little faster? I use my Mac for everything from editing movies in Final Cut Pro to iTunes and it works fine.. this rendering deal is going to be the death of it I know.

Does Poser work better with the PC?? My goal is to make about 20 short clips of CGI... at this rate I'll be finished by 2010!

Thanks!
