interesting stuff. I could be wrong but from what i recall on the renderboxx website, brazil r/s was available as a fully integrated plugin but not vray. This may have changed since I last read it, but it got be wondering why more 3PP's were not available across the board.

The reason I ask this is that the office I work in currently has a renderdrive RD5000. It is now 3+ years old and I cannot help but think that for design modelling and the occasional full size high quality render, vray on a decent machine might be just as good. So I guess my next question is; would it be worth selling the renderdrive and investing in a less powerful system using v-ray/maxwell, or would this be throwing the baby out with the bathwater....?
