Plus KeyShot is built on proven technology. There are thousands of HyperShot/KeyShot customers using the product in production every day.

So - as you know - KeyShot is meeting most of your requirements - today!

Alright  ....you convinced me.  I just purchased a seat of KeyShot from Novedge.  They responded the quickest, budged a little on the price and said that they would get the licensing code to me today.

Looking forward to digging in a little deeper with KeyShot this weekend.  I'm also learning Rhino via the helpful tutorials posted by Adam O'Hern...
