Thanks Scott.  Yes, this is how I have it set up on my boxes.  Just didn't
get to it in the Win2000 boxes in the classroom.  I might mention something
about it next week.

As far as taking picture home, the students just take the .pov source on
floppy or USB dongle, so they can continue working on them.  POV-Ray is a
free download.  They just re-render.
