I think you'll be quiet pleased with the performance and features of the
Flyer, especially with the new software upgrade.  There are some limitations.
However, I believe they are minor considering the price/performance
of the Flyer system.

Yes, the Flyer includes the Toaster.

If you are into 3D animation, the biggest "bonus" is the inclusion of
"LightWave 3D".  If you like the computer graphics on "ST:Voyager" and/or
"Babylon 5", you'll love becoming a "WaveRider" with LightWave!

For a system under $10K, that doesn't require "compiling" or rendering,
and still look good?  Oh, and includes a killer 3D animation program?
(snicker) Good luck! :)
