I had it built to these specifications: dual 100MHZ Pentiums, Triton chipset on an Asus
(spelling?) motherboard. The motherboard has 4 PCI and 4 EISA slots. It also has 64MB RAM, 512
Cache. I use an Adaptec SCSI controller for the Seagate Barracuda 2.0GB drive, Toshiba 4X
CD-ROM, Ricoh CD-R and SyQuest 88MB drives, plus a scanner. This is the system with LW on it.
It is part of a peer-to-peer network with 486's on a Star LAN hub (10BaseT), that I plan to use
as a rendering farm.

I don't get LWPro (I just got my copy of Intel LW last week!). How do you sign up for it?

It does work, but not on the same scene. I can open mutiple copies of LW rendering different
scenes. I may try a benchmark to see what kind of performance I can get this way.
