ok…here’s the situation…(by the way, thanks for the quick reply!)and the situation is…i couldn’t wait 30 days for dell to build my desktop, so i canceled the order and replaced it w/ a dell precision laptop instead. about the same specs as the desktop, but a somewhat different graphics card.about the graphics card…a tbs rep told me that nvidia quadro fx video cards, while perfect for 3d applications, slow down toon boom studio 5, which is 2d. she said it’s not opengl. she said a geforce graphics card would be better, but thing of it is, is…i need that nvidia quadro fx graphics card to run maya smoothly. so, i’m glad it’ll still work w/ tbs, but hoping this particular nvidia quadro fx model on the laptop that’s coming won’t compromise tbs!again, will you take a look-see at these specs (for the new laptop); i’m biting my nails this graphics card will work well w/ tbs, b/c the sales rep at dell says it’s opengl!!!SPECS:Dell Precision M4400Intel Core 2 Duo P8700, 2.53GHz, 1066MHz 3M L2 Cache, Dual Core4.0GB, DDR2-800 SDRAM, 2 DIMM512MB NVIDIA Quadro FX 770M250GB Hard Drive 9.5MM 7200RPM FFSWindows 7 Professional downgrade to XP Pro SP3, with mediaplease keep the new graphics card in mind in analyzing the new machine!!! thank you in advance!!!
