    This is all fine and good but quite frankly I would be *much* less
    interested if I could only show the videos on a computer.  I want 
    to be able to view them on a conventional TV or maybe even
    *gasp* sell something I produced like Ray does.  I assume that
    the resulting video can be written to video tape and shown on a
    regular TV set.  If that's the case people need to be aware that
    conventional field sequential NTSC flickers.  It something you
    get use to, but it is very noticable at first.

    I have, BTW, seen Crystal Eyes on an SGI demo machine, and they
    are indeed marvelous!
