This was running on the new Raptor II. It has a single R4600 @ 133MHz
and unlike the other Raptor systems, it is a full workstation with
24bit color, 17" monitor, and CD-ROM. Raptor and Raptor Plus are only
rendering engines. The Raptor II lists for $10K with 32MB RAM and 500MB
disk. Ron Scott's QFX also now runs on the Raptor II.

I don't think Screamernet was ever running at the Deskstation booth.
I went by there a dozen times during the 3day exhibition and it was
always down (I had a test scene that I wanted to try out).
