[comp.graphics] Pixar

sandro@nlm-mcs.arpa (Michael D'Alessandro) (11/24/88)

I am interested in learning about the architecture and design of
the Pixar graphics computer.  Does anyone know of any good articles
or papers on the design and architecture of the Pixar machine(s).  
I'd like to know what makes them architecturally unique from other
computers.

 I am currently studying "graphics workhorses" and I need some info on the
Pixar  machine(s).  I am looking at normal specs such as microprocessor,
capabilities, price, programming, graphics/animation packages,etc...
  
 If you can help in any way, thanks.   -Shaul Peleg
