Here's a jpg of the rendered scene from when I first made it (at 
320x240):

Here are some screenshots of the preview window taken a few seconds 
after pausing the render, but at 640x480
As soon as my machine slowed down (+ 60 seconds):

After an hour:

2hours

3 hours

And the output file -> jpg when I stopped it (also at 3 hrs)

FWIW

It's a simple scene that shouldn't take a G4 400 more than a minute 
or two. [and didn't in the past].

Have Fun
