- No, it was rendered exclusively on Raptors using Windows NT
- and Lightwave. There was an article about it in Amiga Computing.
- Also, someone who worked on it posted in the Lightwave group
- a while ago. He said they used Raptors for rendering.

- Amigas are so staggeringly slow that essentially all professional
- work has moved to Windows NT systems such as DEC Alpha boxes, which
- can be as much as 200X the rendering speed of an 060.
