I too first used Polyray, was at the start of my ray tracing experience,
just some months before encountering POV-Ray.  The coprocessor thing
mentioned here reminded me that at the time I also didn't have a math
coprocessor but added one in at some point.  Must have been to use POV-Ray
and I had forgotten about it until now.

P.S.  Yea! I found a used Ray Tracing Creations book for sale online for $15
and grabbed it up.
