Performer will not be supported on the new system. Performer does not
support
Windows NT.

You can use OpenGL (every NT system supports OpenGL) if that siuts your
needs.

FSG should be your targeted API for that system if you need a scene
graph
based API but you'll have to wait a short while for that.

Cheers,Angus.
