Hi
I've just purchased a new computer and already it's giving me email /news
problems. So I apologise in advance for any crazy posts that may appear
here!
One good thing it is fast, fast fast :)

Probably just too fast for you, that's why you're having problems :)
They never stay fast for very long, though...

How fast is fast? Like 4 times faster renders than the old computer did? Or
incredibly better than that?
I only went to 3 times faster on average for my last change.

it was, now I am back to the same three day renders...

About 5 times faster than my old 300Mhz P2
5hr renders takes about an hour.
Makes media almost fun!

If someone were to give me a 1 gig machine I would be happy to give them a
feather. That way we would both be tickled.

has anyone ever noticed that new hardware always screws about for a few
months before it beds itself down, and start working properly..?
my brother has just built a K7 Geforce based monster (over 100fps in Q3 the
git), but the amount of times it has shot itself in the space of 2 weeks is
unreal, and after installing windows for about the seventh time it finally
seems to be working right.!
also has anyone ever noticed that the quality of ppl's pov work dramatically
goes up as soon as they don't have to wait as long for there renders to
complete?

Those analog CPUs with AI getting made now? Hadn't heard... :-)
Quality of my POVing is not quite keeping in step with the computer upgrades, but it
sure isn't
hurting either thanks to it.
