BOXX Technologies, a leading provider of digital content creation systems for the entertainment and digital film industries, announced today its new 3DBOXX R1 series of workstations for Microsoft Windows 2000, Windows NT or Linux based on the newest 1.4GHz AMD Athlon processors. Optimized for leading 3D and animation software programs such as Maya, 3D Studio MAX, Softimage 3D, LightWave 3D, and Houdini, the 3DBOXX R1 series is available in dual processor configurations, which offer exceptional price and performance in a cooler, more compact, and easily serviceable workstation configuration.
