68000 here.  No math coprocessor, no memory management, 512K of memory.
I think I started with DBW-Render, though, and then defected to POV-Ray
when Drew Wells did, then abandoned it for a time to play with TurboSilver
(the predecessor to Imagine) then came back to POV sometime in 1993, this
time to stay.
