point lights are just (a cheap approximation of) very small square area lights.

Why? I don't get that. They should be happy about Octane or am I missing something.

Octane is the reason I just bought 6 nvidia cards. They defiantly owe you lol. I hope you get a commission on the xpanders then I will feel better.

Maybe because Octane is running fine on gaming cards instead of Tesla's

I'm thinking about buying a second rig just for Octane rendering. I'm not touching anything that doesn't have Cuda.

But that's true for most everything. Adobe Premiere CS5 also runs fine on gaming cards.

maybe because octane is a iRay (nvidia renderer) competitor, and probably costs wayyyyyy less.

I liked the "(bertrand benoit), a friend"
By the way, you didn´t say how long the second picture took to render.
And tell your doctor that there are some guys from brazil waiting for you and they must do a good job!
