On the bonus disc for Final Fantasy etc. etc. it was mentioned that one
of the scene files took about 45 minutes to load up on the systems they
were using... (can't check exact details right now, I've lent the discs
out to a friesnd, and won't be visiting him again until next month.
Sheesh, you're gone from Friday evening to Sunday evening and there are
55ish posts waiting here to ambush you when you get back...)
Bye for now,
Jamie.

I think it could work like moray preview just rest of modeller would be
replaced with algorithm of simple scene generation. Fast enough machine could
support such online animation.

AFAIK the apple story is just a story which has nothing to do with
reality...
