WinDOS PC (P2 266). It looks terrible and seems to be very limited and difficult to
use (not very flexible) compared to Apples QT technology (which is proven for years
now). It takes me less than a minute to create a QT VR movie out of *free* tools by
simply drgging the output image (actually, POV-Ray Mac can directly output to
QuickTime Movies, this goes for single frames as well as *animations* - so I could
even directly create a digial video stream to upload to a digial video recorder via
FireWire...just to let you know :-) on the application,it will ask me I I want to
change the default compression and then I press a "Create" button and after 30 sec all
is done!
>(And note that a former POV-Ray team member, Jim Nitchals, worked on Apples
QuickTime!!! And is even mentioned as doing its optimzation on QT VR in the SIGGRAPH
95 paper...)
