Hey folks,
Today my custom quad core extreme PC system arrived. Apparently Ace Ventura took care of delivery cos my second hard drive was knocked loose in shipping and was rattling around the PC Case when I took it from the shipping box! It was nicely packed/padded but somehow it had come loose (I see todays drives don't screw in but "snap" in with a "tooless installation" (as the box the case came in says). The guy will send me a new drive and cord to replace that one. But I've still got drive C up and running and I'm sure I won't fill the single 500 GB hard drive before the second one comes.
Do any of you have DSL? I will get it for the new PC but it has a extra large phone cord jack looking thing that the guy said was for the DSL line (built into my ASUS motherboard). Is that the correct slot?
Since the PC is up and humming I installed Bryce 6.1 3D environment, modeling & animation generation program and I was wondering if any of you have it (or an earlier version) and more importantly can tell me how to get started. I have lots of buttons and thi\ngs to do stuff with but the manual only folds out to say what the onscreen icons are, not what to do with them! I ordered Making 3d Worlds in Bryce 4 (the only book with a good review on amazon) but it won't arrive for several weeks yet.
