[qoute]My friends over on the Imagine site convinced me to ditch using Imagine3D on the Amiga and use the Win version, because the speed difference is quite amazing in terms of rendering speed, even with 386/486 PCs, which blow the poor old Ami out of the water (even the fastest Amigas).

Something not right with that. I use Imagine 5.14 optimized for PPC on my A4000T and I can assure you that it renders
much, much[/b] faster than any 486 can, especially one running windoze. Its only been the last three or four years, maybe with the Pentium4, that PCs have had any
practical "real world" speed advantage over an optimized Amiga, or even a Mac -- which is nothing but an insanely priced PC with feminine color schemes. Even the 68060 Imagine 5.17 is way faster rendering than a 486 running Windoze. I'd guess a Pentium II might beat the 060 in a horse race, but who cares? If the price of a modest speed increase is having to do the same work in a bullsh*t OS like windoze, I'll just bite the bullet and wait a few extra seconds for my frames to finish.
