I am a long time Mac user and I'm glad to see that we've got our own
group now. I hadn't heard of it until today. I also hadn't heardof the
unofficial version on smellenbergh's page until today, so I'll look into
that as well.

I do have a question, tho. I am working on a scene for the IRTC and I'm
using the tree macro file that Gilles Tran uploaded a few weeks ago. On
my windows machine I can have multiple trees without any problem, but on
my iMac with 64Mgs of RAM, virtual memory set to 128 Megs, I need to
give POV-Ray 110 MB of RAM in order to render three trees and the memory
peaks during parsing. If I add another tree, the number of objects gets
absudrly high and the programwill crash.

Is anyone else have this kind of memory trouble on their Macs? And does
anyone know if the unofficial version would have this problem?
