the movie was impressive.  i tried to run it in 3.1 and found out
that it was a megapov thing.  will it run in 3.5?  i'm a newbie and
i've got my hands full with learning 3.1 so i think i should avoid
3.5 until it comes out officially, but i loved the tornado and am
interested to know if it will "fly" in it.  i'm scared of megapov...
i believe a certain level of expertise beyond mine is a requirement
for running unofficial pov versions.

thank you, miker
