- All:
- I work for the Harvard University Science Center which owns both an
- Amiga
- 2000 (030/14Megs/Commodore Ethernet Board 2065/Toaster 2000 3.1/Lightwave
- 3.5) and a Silcon Graphics Indy (out-of-the-box with no add-ons or software).
- Ideally I would like to be able to work Lightwave on the Amiga platform
- (which we
- already own), render on the Indy (for its obvious speed), and display the
- output back on the Amiga/Toaster. Is this a possible and reasonable endevour?
- I don't pretend to understand screamer-net hardware or networking from an
- operations manager point of view, but with the new 3.5 lightwave software
- and future availability of lightwave on multiple platforms, it occurs to me
- that each computer has what the other does not. What I would be interested
- in is detailed blow-by-blow description of what I would need to do to link
- the two
- machines so that the Amiga can be on the front end of the SGI. Thank you in
- advance.
