Description is misleading: OGL 2.0 support is only for limited number of cards on PCs, not Macs. 64-bit support is only for Win XP Pro64, not macs. Product is not very stable with large models and OGL implementation is extremely slow. Do yourself a favor, try C4D or Modo, before shelling out for this product (which does not have a free demo and depends on HW dongles for protection.)

I had no problem installing the update. Lightwave is the best program that I have used. It has more features than anyone could possibly learn. I find it to be great fun to use, and it has been rarely frustrating for me. I've had nothing but positive experiences dealing with the company. I'm running it both on my Mac G4 and on a PC laptop.
