Simple: Wait another 4 weeks or so for the final version. Chcuk Baker
(NewTeck BBS SysOp) said that there'll be a module in the LW 4.0 package
that is LW, but only renders, and can be used on any number of machines
for distribted rendering. Catch: It currently wil only work on a series
of similar processors (Amigas to Amigas, Intel to Intel, ect.) From what
I can tell, it's like the 3DS distributed rendering. Hope this helps...
