:-( It's been 7hrs 41 mins, and it's still halfway through rendering the
second-to-last, rather blurry pass. I can't understand for the life of me
why rendering such little detail takes so long, I would expect this from the
actual final render. Also, it looks like my LDraw white is yellow in POV
3.5... I don't know if that's an artifact of the blurred passes, or if that
will show in the final render.
Truth is, this is only a test render! I need to render a print resolution
image here... and I can only dread how many days that will take! and I have
a few more print res images lined up after it too!

Well, my 1 GHz laptop is my primary machine, which I'm posting from now, and
I can't tie it up cause all of my work is on it. I do have access to others'
machines I can ship my POV files off to, though, one image is being rendered
tonight. In a month or two, I think I'll buy a new motherboard and processor
for this desktop, possibly some more RAM too.
*sigh*
