I'm estimating just over 60 hours to render *one* 1280x960 scene.

It'll probably be slightly wrong too...

:D

Prolly need a little more efficient design :)

Let me guess, raytraced lights/shadows/refraction/reflections?

I had one 640x480 3dmax render that took 16 days to render. It was just to see if it could be done really. It was a water background with some smoothed text made out of glass with 3 lights. Everything was raytraced. Looked like ass really. The kicker is the power went out here on the 16th day with 97% done.

Ouch.

This is the longest render I've done. It was 5 days. Careful, it's a large file.
