    but not a 3d modeling package Just because it's not drag & drop? There are limitations by using a text only interface, but you still can do A LOT with POV-Ray by only using a text editor. It's better for someone like me without good 3D acceleration.

    1. It doesn't matter if I'm a Linux hippie, a screwed w2k user, a free sofware zealot or a BSODed win9xer. What matters is that you are avoiding the question at hand.

    2. Never use two way arguments: if my posting on slashdot is the wrong way you are going the wrong way too.

    3. Changes the direction of computing world wide? You mean like in countries that are using more and more free software. Or do you mean the world wide web. Notice the July to August 2002.
