I think is entire discussion seems somewhat futile as this current point in time as the engines are nothing but a fantasy. At work I have nothing less then a monster of a machine, four processors (combining to a mindbogglingly big amount of processing power and ram I have stopped counting since quite some time. And the problem is this, I have been following papervision since quite some time now and I just cannot see it applied as of yet. When running the papervision site I see my Firefox Ram usage spike to anything between 300 and 500 MB of ram and a entire processor is taken up for handling it. We sometimes forget (we being my colleagues and myself) who we actually are developing for. In German there is a nice expression for those whom we want to see our 'stuff'; Otto Normal Verbraucher. Meaning the average joe-blow, who probably is seeing our work on a machine bought a year ago or more. With maybe (if we are very very lucky) on gig of ram an a somewhat decent processor. This user will have absolutely no use for this in this current time. Please do not get me wrong, I am very enthusiastic on where this is going, but as of yet it all looks a bit to Castle of Wolfenstein to me, if you catch my drift. Just my own two cents on the topic, though off course all my support and respect remains...just a late night thought on my end...
have a marvellous (AS-free) night....
