Well, I'm very pleased with linux! More than with Windows in any way and more
than with macintosh...
I mean... I do lots of hard stuff for the computer and the last time it crashed
was when I killed an OpenGL program that was "unprotecting memory" for
acceleration... And I think the computer was not crashed, but only the video
card, which is much like a general crash...
I love linux, and the only reason why I'm going to MacOS X is that I'll be able
to use my current prefered application for editing povray, sending mail and
news, etc s'called Emacs!

No, not really, I'll be using some linux commands such as system() that
shouldn't work on MacOS <X... but the final version should be almost perfectly
OpenPlatform! =D

I'm participating in the OS X public beta, and I have to say that it's
only about 80% ready for the public. On the other hand, at its current
state, if you can tolerate the rough edges, it does indeed rock.
ObPOV:
When running POV-Ray in the classic layer under OS X public beta, I've
found that it's wisest not to have any other classic aps running at the
same time -- often, odd interactions in the shared memory space of the
classic layer will cause not just the classic layer, but the entire OS
to hang when you try a complex render.

IIRC 5000x5000, for use as a height_field (on the userdisk for those who remember
it :-)
For a final image, 1600x1600 (Escher gallery)

800x600, sometimes 1152x864 (my screen res)

Only just messin' around, no real anims...

I agree about the "80% ready" part. At least, if by "public" you mean
final release, for a public beta it is pretty good as far as stability
and performance.
The interface seems a bit undeveloped, but I expect that to change
quickly with the additional releases, since they appear to be starting
from the basic interface ideas and building onto that instead of having
the melting pot of different and inconsistent interface features like
Mac OS 9 and earlier.

I haven't had the OS hang yet...but POV-Ray is the only thing I run
under Classic. :-)
I've been trying to compile POV-Ray with Project Builder, but haven't
had much success yet. I *did* get all the files to compile, so I am
making some progress...maybe I can eventually get a simple Cocoa
interface for MegaPOV. Whether it would be functional enough for anyone
to want to use it is another question...

But most Linux distros come with emacs, I use it all the time for POV,
Perl, editing Makefiles etc. I find it a bit too bulky to use for news
or mail, so for them I use Pico, (which I'm hopefully going to patch to
use SHIF Arrow marking). But emacs with syntax hilighting for pov is
one essential I waouldn't be without now that I've used it. You can
get povmode.el for emax at:
http://www.acc.umu.se/~woormie/povray/
I use this in conjunction with an Rxvt utility of my own
called PovMenu, available here:
http://www.zeropps.uklinux.net/linstuff.html
And there's even a screenshot now aswell.

There isn't really a "usual size" for me. Most images I render are test
images and therefore rather small (e.g., 640x480). Final images often
don't have the 4x3 format and the size depends on whether they are
intended for a web page (at most 700 pixels wide) or full screen (must
fit into 1600x1200 right now :-).
>2. Animations
Haven't done any serious animations yet, so I'll skip these questions.
