I am loking for a real time 3D graphics animation/simulation
platform. In my prior environment I used SGI IRIS 2400T hardware,
and I am currently considering getting SGI 310 GTX system.
However, the rest of my computing environment consists of a
moderate network of SPARC stations and the corresponding support.
SUN is supposed to start shipping soon a new graphics accelerator
board with SPARC 2 that they call GT.
The SPARC 2 hardware with a GT accelerator looks promissing, but
I am not sure how to make the comparison since I have no experince
with any graphics accelerator hardwarte from SUN nor with 4D/310/GTX.
Any advise of how to compare these two machines will be appreciated.
Thanks, in advance.
