Center for Supercomputing Research and Development: With reference to your article in comp.graphics, yes, we have bought an earlier version of Ray Tracing Corp's software. For Three months they have refused to return EVEN ONE phone call. To my knowledge, they have yet to release their ARTS version of TRACER. I would avoid Ray Tracing Corp at all costs. We were just about to send out the Purchase Order for this product when we received this . . . could anyone PLEASE fill me in further about the reliability, good/bad experiences about this company? Any help/experiences if GREATLY appreciated! Phil Ritzenthaler |USnail:University Computer Services Computer Graphics Specialist | Academic User Services | 241 Math-Science Bldg.
