I use 3ds max and ViZ, and I'm not familiar with Maya, but can you change
from DirectX to OpenGL or vice versa, for the realtime viewports? Have you
go it updated to the latest service pack?

I dont know what the FEAR thing is, but you can always dual boot with XP or
run XP in a virtual machine and do some of the jobs you need there

No. You really cannot use a virtual machine with 3D and CAD for anything
other than very simple models. With the limited memory and no hardware
OpenGL or DirectX it really does not work very well at all. Another major
obstacle that I encountered with some programs is that you cannot use the
USB license dongles when you are using VirtualPC.

Yes, what you have done there is change from using the built-in software
rendering (which is obviously not compatible with Vista) to hardware
OpenGL/DirectX.

I am not telling him to do actuall work on the virtual machine but using it
only for the plugin he has....

I dont know exactly what that plug in does... it might be a one time
conversion thing...

The reason you cant use USB is because you are using the PATHETIC virtual PC
that is a TOY

vmware supports USB

What? is Francis' alter-ego. They have discussions like this:

<tape recorder on>

Mom: Francis take your meds!
Francis: But mom, do I have to?
What?: what?

Mom: Francis, when you go out to play with the kids, always wear your
football helmet. We don't want you to damage your brain anymore than it is.
Francis: But mom, do I have to? The kids always laugh at me.
What?: what?

Mom: Francis, stop calling Linux users pos trolls.
Francis: But mom, it makes me look so smart.
What?: what?

Mom: Francis, see I told you dear, if you take that cork off your fork
you're going to poke yourself in the eye!
Francis: Yeh, but it's hard to eat my peas with this cork on my fork.
What?: what?

<tape recorder battery dies>

Cheers.

Whatever you are, I know that nasty back mama of yours has told you that
she didn't know who your daddy was. That's why she wanted to leave you
on the bridge, thus *On the Bridge* -- honey.

Yes NoStop, you couldn't stop yourself -- no one can stop you. What did
you do here? Are you on some kind of medication? Did you go NoStop on
the meds and you left Earth on this one?

You'll do good to keep your meds under control, because that blank look
comes over your face (look at yourself in the mirror), and NoStop has
left the planet when you're on your meds. It should be the opposite when
you take your meds, but you're the mighty NoStop and you can't be stopped.

Hahahahaha

good one there!

You should make sure you wash that behind. You know about the
cleanliness thing, and then you both can get freakish and swap Tampons.
