<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I would very much like to see (and be willing to
pay a license fee for) a viewer that had little more capacity than to render
(out to a kilometer), support navigation (including hypergridded TP), and have
robust login security (I don't know, maybe 128-bit). Does such a
"viewer"/renderer exist?</FONT></DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr>Thanks Melanie, this motivate me for trying it out. For my user
training strategy, I try to stick to only one viewer ... so I will check it
out and consider whether I need to shift from Firestorm.

It's<BR>different. I have, for instance, spoken to people who can't
