NaiLZ is an unknown quantity at this point
Yes i suppose you could run 3dsmax using virtual PC but its just not worth it due to the extreme loss in performace. Especially due to the availability of better hardware for the x86 platform.

About the RAM i dont mean a limitation to the amount of RAM that the OS can recognize. I mean errors in the RAM. You will need to get ECC/Registered RAM to solve this problem(i neglected to say that last post).

As far as a CPU in a PCI board I have too seen them but they are not current and are very slow and would not really be worth the trouble of finding it given that the preformance boost will be nominal. Id say get a new mobo and cpu at this point. BTW 3dsmax has quite a few p4 optimizations

Hehe yes maya is nice besides the fact that it retails for 20K. Thats not to say we cant "use" it. 8 )
