Article-I.D.: purdue.325 Posted: Tue Aug 10 17:49:35 1982 Received: Thu Aug 12 08:03:51 1982 After the success of TRON - Hollywood gets a CRAY X-MP/22 (dual processor X-MP, 2 MWords of 64 bits). For high quality picture they generate 6000 x 4500 pixels (!!!) and with the current 1S/1000 it takes 15 minutes per frame which amounts to 4 minutes of film per month!! With the new machine 25 minutes of film per month. How did they produce TRON ??!! I don't quite understand. It took them 1 1/2 years?? Anyway: for details read the newest Electonics (August 11), page 56. That is the place I have the information from. What is actually the copyright situation ?? Would it be legal just to send it over the net?? Stephan v. Bechtolsheim, Purdue CS (svb@purdue) (pur-ee!purdue!svb) (Purdue Univ., CS Dep., W Lafayette, IN 47907)
