    One of the models I'm working on is now so large, at least when it's loaded up inside the 3D editor, it can no longer be opened on a 32bit OS, I need to be on Vista 64 to open it up. This makes me feel manly indeed, and I can see two new chest hairs have sprouted up as a result. Total polygon count for the beast is over 2 million (I think). Harrr! The HMSS Invincible[^] in drydock, outside of low Mars orbit. Collection of various related shots[^] Considering our complete impotence at running a successful space program, this is probably as close to Mars as I'm going to get.

    For once, someone is actually utilizing a 64bit OS. Great images....by the way.

    Me, I'm dishonest. And a dishonest man you can always trust to be dishonest.

                  We had some very nice Ferrari laptops running Vista 64 many years ago. The only thing special was th carbon fibre lid and Ferrari badge on the mouse! Bit naff, but one of the PMs was in love with them. He borrowed one from our test pool and didnt give it back for ages. What a twat he was.

                      No not really. I guess I didn't watch that much TV as a kid, or it didn't make that much of an impression. Star Trek, 6 Million Dollar Man, Charlies Angles, Bionic Woman, Star Blazers, Mork and Mindy, those I remember, Speed Racer, not so much. :)

                        Personally, I love the idea that Raymond spends his nights posting bad regexs to mailing lists under the pseudonym of Jane Smith. He'd be like a super hero, only more nerdy and less useful. [Trevel]

                          It's not a CAD program, I'm using Houdini[^]. A very cool program, especially from a programmers perspective.

                              Was never a big fan of it always found it too slow to reach the target compared to a "normal" sniper rifle. (Note in reality I'm a decent clay shooter so tend to go for things on the move rather than stationary)...

                                By Acer? We've got a LCD TV made by them and I'm surprised Ferrari allow it, my God that thing is slow to respond, you adjust the volume and you have to wait for ~5s for the OSD to disappear and you can't do anything while it's on (that's the most annoying fault).

                                      One of the models I'm working on is now so large, at least when it's loaded up inside the 3D editor, it can no longer be opened on a 32bit OS, I need to be on Vista 64 to open it up. This makes me feel manly indeed, and I can see two new chest hairs have sprouted up as a result. Total polygon count for the beast is over 2 million (I think). Harrr! The HMSS Invincible[^] in drydock, outside of low Mars orbit. Collection of various related shots[^] Considering our complete impotence at running a successful space program, this is probably as close to Mars as I'm going to get.

                                      Building up your resume so you can eventually start work on a, how you say, "Death Star"?

                                        That's pretty good. What app are you using to model with?

                                          It's not a CAD program, I'm using Houdini[^]. A very cool program, especially from a programmers perspective.

                                          That would be some seriously fun software to work on (and probably to work with). Though somebody should tell them to pre-load their mouse-over images on that page. :rolleyes:
