Been very busy recently and havn't been able to be around or play with terragen.  Junior year of college getting quite BUSY haha. Also was continuing my part time working for IBM, so between school and that my entire week is just filled with one type of work or another. 

Anyways, summer is around the corner so hopefully will finally get some terragen time.  I did just the other week get some computer upgrades to give my system a little boost. 

i7 860 2.8Ghz
8 GB GDDR3 1600
ATI Radeon HD 5850

Basically I gutted out my old computer, bought those 3 above and a new mobo.  Kept my power supply, case, and hdd.  Next on my list of possible upgrades is a new hdd (currently 7200 rpm 250gb, need more space + more speed ;)) and a new case (my case is slowly aging too, the front fan built into the case has died but didn't affect temps too much)

We will be looking forward to what you can make when you have time. Congratulations!

That's a great new system! I have an i860 as a render box now and it's working great. :)
