Well guess you may as well forget about trying to randomize those books
in the bookcases.
That chandelier is upside-down isn't it? Or at least looks it to me.
I like the desk texture. Not so sure what "realism" you were after,
could it be needing fade_distance in lights and objects? Maybe area
lights too. Forget I said that... 55 hours to render eh? I don't see
why, your pentium 166 (same ram amount I have too) should have been
faster than that.
There appears to be one burnt out bulb in that chandelier. Could be a
sign that somethings wrong in there.
