In the last week or two I've been playing with a Dell Laditude 8100 with a
Geforce2go card. I haven't played with performer yet, but with my opengl
apps under windoze, I have had to really decrease the ratio between my near
and far clipping planes to prevent z fighting. I'm not sure if this is a
hardware thing or a driver thing? Has anybody else seen this?
I've always wanted a SGI Laptop running Performer every since a saw "TWISTER"
:)
