I'm surprised that Trolltech is allowing Microsoft to get their product
for free. I have played with Qt3 somewhat; not sure how their widgetry
compares with GTK+, as far as looks are concerned, but much prefer C++.
Disappointingly, the openGL module for QT failed to work when I ran the 
examples.  I hear VTK is nice. Just checked Google and, sure enough,
there's a pyVTK.

Blender looks impressive too, but do I have to learn
how to program with mozilla? I feel like a bee who cannot
decide on which flower to light. Anyway, thanks to you all
for the input.
