The way I see it, Rhino will get the cool toys then they will translate it to Sketchup.

At least that is what I hope, so good luck guys, hope it's a great upgrade and a little closer to the Max version.

IMO what Vray for SU needs is a stand alone studio to take advantage of 64 bits and millions of poly's, and have a port like the New maxwell.

Totally agree solo. Lets hope a stand alone 64bit Vray is available sometime soon.

Sounds like very good news. I hope the timeframe from the release of the Rhino update to the release of the SU Beta isn't too drawn out. In the meantime, I took advantage of the Maxwell promo and bought a Suite with 5 render nodes at 30% off.
