Hi, and welcome.

I think raytracing is the most demanding task for todays computers, and
shows in my opinion how primitive our computers are, compared to 'the
reality' that we try to copy in raytracing.. I love computers, anyway.. But
my patience stops after about 1 day of rendering.. It seems to me that very
few people have patience for more than this.. Many people, myself included,
can work on a project for months however.

By the way, the other newsgroups here, such as povray.general is especially
for asking general questions about raytracing without posting pictures.

Thanks,
Hugo
