As you know, the booklet sold in theatres with ROTJ was worth its $3 for photos and explantations of how SFX and models were made. Some questions: Does ILM use computer-generated CRT graphics? Vector or Raster scan? Do they build their own hardware, or all off-the-shelf? Clearly they write lots of software. mike k
