You mean a home computer?? The Amiga with a 68030/40. You have to write the
3D graphics commands but I have done most of that in Unix and Xwindows so
when the get it going, I am porting it there from a Sun. There is no
"real-time" home computer - Silicon Graphics is the only machine that I'd
call real time for  true graphics - Garoud Shading, Phong Shading, full 3D
hardware animation, multi-point lighting (multi-color too).
