Spoken like a man living in a 2d world...

David's comment that VRML is dead is right on but for people doing 3d it is
the *only* way we can share our vizualizations with the world. I think the
price of a few minutes of downloading is far less than the price of an IDL
runtime license.

And you are exaggerating a little. Cosmo player is 3.2 MB. :)
