If you use Windows NT you can take advantage of dual-processor systems like
our KittyHawk. Of course, if you really want to make Lightwave fly, use our
Alpha-based Barnstormer, which is twice as fast as our dual 90MHz Pentium.
Since our KittyHawk is upgradeable to our Barnstormer, you can start out
with the Intel-based system and upgrade once your projects demand the extra
speed!
