Re:Update from UtahOk, 24 hours are up and if there's to be an answer, it'll have to be to another question. One more nudge for objective reality, one less for Christianity. Oh well.
So... you had a chunk of it. Sort of. My siamese cat is named after Asia Carerra (just "Asia"); at the time the cat arrived, Asia's likeness had just been put on our website in a morphing example. So I have this cat named Asia.
At the time I was cobbling up something to ask the Mormon Who Speaks With God, Asia (the cat) walked across my keyboard, as cats do, and also, as cats do, turned her fanny towards me so I could be sure it was her. The word was "bunghole", and it was Asia's bunghole, only you had the wrong Asia, and the wrong side of her, though you did have her namesake and at least the right end of the torso.

We've been looking for an icon artist. So...We make graphics software, and while we're darned good at the software end of it, predictably, we're not so good at art, as a bunch of bit-pushers.
Any icon creators who think they would be interested in a BIG icon job - literally hundreds of them - are welcome to take a gander at the aging set we're using now and contemplate how you might want to go about giving our software's toolbar and toolbox a facelift.
Here are the toolbar icons (the text below the images isn't part of the icons... it's a switchable toolbar option to label them is all.)
And here are the toolbox icons.
If you think you might be interested in working on this, please give us a shout here.

Re:Real Programmers
It was indeed a great CPU. I was sufficiently inspired, even some years later, to write this emulation.

Give her HashHash Animation Master does most of what Maya, Lightwave etc. does, at a much cheaper cost.
WinImages is a "must have' program, especially since it's on sale. It includes a 3D render program.
Besides Blender, there's another open source program at www.openfx.com which has its roots in the old Sculpt 3D program.Spend a few days looking at the sites in the dmoz.org 3D sections. When looking at which program to buy or put your time into, read through the discussion groups devoted to the program. For example, Caligari was mentioned, but if you read the sites forums, it doesen't seem to be a program worth dealing with.
Maya, Softimage, Lightwave are often mentioned as the top programs, but you may not need that sort of power, and expense, if she's not planning to work for a company using those programs.New Riders publishes some execllent books, especially Digital Cinematography & Directing, Digital Lighting & Rendering, and Digital Texturing and Painting.
DVD's are also a great source of "behind the scenes" info. Movie FX Mag has some good sections on CGI.

WinImages
Yes, I know this is a windows program, so get Virtual PC to run it. There's a sale on WinImages, it's now $50. This is one of the best morphing programs, it's scriptable, and does a hundred other effects besides morphing. And since this is slashdot, I'll need to mention that their credits page includes X-Men
