Looks interesting, except the diamonds suck, which for me is a deal killer. And there is no price information whatsoever. Its a lease deal, and the contract information they show is from 2003.
I'm sure it will fill the bill for a lot of people, with the bucks and zero time dead lines. And a therapist on call.

Hum, interesting......

But I swore off clients that need that kind of delivery time.
I think it was John Lee Hooker that said, "I'm going to leave this neighborhood before my health gets bad.".

Realtime. Interesting. But I can not see interiors at the gallery.

Do somebody know, where to get this kind of extrem high res HDRIs?

[Micha]

... and now a 2-day demo is available.

...quite similar to "Autodesk Showcase" isn't it?

This is awesome!

pretty old actually

yeah this stuff doesn't look any better than aliasstudio's hardware shading, but I guess that's a huge price difference.

This realtime plugin for rhino can get pretty good results for a lot less money.

There's lots of options out there. As a former Maya user, I was looking into this hardware renderer:

Check out the gallery. It's around $2500, but the results are very close to Maxwell, at probably faster speeds as it's hardware based. However, for me, the fluid workflow that Maxwell has created with the Rhino plugin is unbeatable. I'm totally happy with Maxwell, and will probably use it for years to come.
