Nope, the Rendersaurus is aparently a new rendering machine which is
totally unrelated to the Raptor. It uses the same screamernet software to
control aparently up to eight MIPS R4600 RISC processors to acheive some pretty
incredible speed. I know that it's currently being distributed by Anti Gravity
Products who can be reached at (301) 393 - 6650 (576 -6383 FAX) and that for
under $6000 you get a whole system including CD-ROM and Windows NT to run the
thing. It seems like a terrific deal, so it's probably worth giving them a
call and see what it's all about.
