And let's face it, not all computers are created equal or have the same
amount of ram available. There are a few scenes I have had to abort
development on simply because I did not have the system resources to
support the features and number of objects I was trying to work with.
I am certainly not going to blame the program for my system's shortcomings.
If you want to play with "big boy" computer programs you should be ready
to spend the money on the equipment needed to support them.
