So i&#8217;m here in Johor Bahru with 24\/7 wireless access, so i&#8217;m getting lazy and also lots of software.  <\/p>\n<p>The most incredible find is Truespace 7.6, a fully-featured 3D authoring software.  The company has been around a long time, but their products got surpassed by others, and theirs has been relegated to the middle of the pack.  Top-end software like Autodesk 3ds max, Cinema 4D, Houdini, and Maya cost 3,000 &#8211; 7,000usd.  Truespace comes in around 600 dollars, with a slew of products in the 300 and less range.  Anyway, this company was bot out by Microsoft this year, and they decided to give away this software &#8211; sweet!  It has been used professionally in making movies also in the past, so i&#8217;m quite confident it can handle what i&#8217;m planning (hoping?) to do with a Great Controversy movie.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/caligari.com\/\">http:\/\/caligari.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Another one i snagged yesterday was Blender.  This is open-source software, so it has always been free.  It is mostly used for drawing in 3D or 2D, and has been used in developing a few movies like Spider Man2, and also for artwork on the History Channel among others.<\/p>\n<p>For an interesting animated movie (the story isn&#8217;t too great, but) made all in Blender:<a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=YE7VzlLtp-4\">http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=YE7VzlLtp-4<\/a><br \/>\nTo get yours:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.blender.org\/\">http:\/\/www.blender.org\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>I got Cinebench the other day.  It is a benchmark program to test out your computer&#8217;s graphic abilities:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.maxon.net\/pages\/download\/cinebench_e.html\">http:\/\/www.maxon.net\/pages\/download\/<br \/>\ncinebench_e.html<\/a><br \/>\nBy way of comparison, mine got a measly 1,421 points \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n<p>Nero gave me big problems in June after a virus infiltration, so i deleted it.  To enable cd and dvd writing again, i downloaded what is probably the most popular free burner software &#8211; CDBurner XP:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/cdburnerxp.se\/\">http:\/\/cdburnerxp.se\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Then today was the most recent software download &#8211; ie8 browser.  I&#8217;m still not used to tabs, but we&#8217;ll see.  It has always amused me how many people like to diss everything Microsoft does, but i respect them a lot &#8211; and no, i don&#8217;t own any stock in them \ud83d\ude42<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/windows\/internet-explorer\/beta\/default.aspx\">http:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/windows\/internet-explorer\/beta\/default.aspx<\/a><\/p>\n<p>For a quick round-up of all the other software i&#8217;ve downloaded since i bot this Acer Aspire 3054nwxmi in May 2007, is cia world factbook, windows live mail, vlc media player, arachnophilia (to convert rtf files to html), skype, irfanview, html-kit, filzip, FileMenuTools (to clean up right-click context menu), avg anti-virus, e-sword (Bible), Lingoes (translation), Open Office, and Audacity (an audio editor) <del datetime=\"2008-09-05T06:54:20+00:00\">not to mention a few games &#8211; hehe.<\/del><br \/>\n<\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OK.
