	Hello.  I have been reading this newsgroup for a while, as I am
	interested in computer graphics and would like to pursue it 
	further.  I was wondering if anyone could recommend a good PD
	graphics/raytracing package for IBM PC's, and/or any books or 
	articles that would be informative for a beginner.  Also, any
	programs of the above type that could run on a Sun/4 would be
	useful, providing their final images could be translated to a PC
	readable format (GIF, etc...).  I apologize if this post is 
	inapproiate for this group.  Any responses would be greatly 
	appreciated, e-mail to hollick@eniac.seas.upenn.edu would be best
	to avoid further cluttering of the net, I suppose. Thanks a lot.
