Thanks but that's hopelessly impractical advice.  What I see are sales on
different PC's.  I was sort of waiting for the price of a 1000 MHz PIII to drop
but now I see AMD chips fall into reasonable prices.  And I have **already** once
before asked my local Circuit City if I could install povray on each of their
machines.  The clerk asked his manager, who asked me if I had ever heard of
something called a "computer virus," the risk being too great.......
