A while back, there was a running thread (and platform/OS war) on CG education.
I apparently missed a good portion of the posts. Did someone out in net-land 
save this thread? I am particularily interested in the low budget solutions 
(i.e. trying to serve as many students as possible on PC platforms) that have 
been implemented. I know that approach isn't optimal, but there is still a lot 
that can be done (albiet more slowly).

I am presently thinking along the lines of Renderman, with many students able 
to edit and view crude ouput on the PCs, then produce their final output on a 
few powerful workstations.

So did anybody save that discussion? And has anyone implemented the scenerio I 
described above?

Please respond via email to the address below as our newsfeed is intermittent.

Thank you,
