I'm not voting because there is no correct answer...

Or cyberland, aka, 3D rendering...

Theres a difference between Family Room/Den and Living Room?Yep - about $15,000 when you go to sell your house :)
Bonus points for having a "Hearth Room" and/or "Great Room".

Nice...So what was your vote if I may ask?

Living Room.

Why?

Bedroom - sure, I fall asleep on the couch, but wheres the bed?
Family Room/Den - den implies home office/work area ... unlesss its tucked into an armoir, then there are too many couches, and not enough shelves and work surfaces.
Office - no desk, nothing remotely office like.

Living Room was the only other option.

I am guessing that if it is a real house (I don't care :) ), there would be a seperate den/home office, and a living room off the kitchen (but seperate from the formal dining room).

What's the point?

Kiltzey was showing off the photo realistic CGI.

Like any young person, he thinks that stuff like this is new an exciting.

Unfortunately they don't teach courses in art history and appreciation in schools anymore because "They'll never us it for their job."

What he doesn't know is that photo realistic art has been done for centuries and a computer doing it just isn't that impressive.

A computer rendering the motion of people in real time with believable skin tone...that would be impressive.

Photo realistic rendering?

I am not sure if your browser gives you this option, but if you right click the full image (at Imageshack) you get the following informaiton:

Image input equipment manufacturer: Panasonic
Image input equipment model: DMC-FZ20
Software used: Ver1.0
Exposure time: 0.02
F number: 2.8
Exposure program: 2
ISO speed rating: 100
Exposure bias: 0.33
Maximum lens aperture: 3
Metering mode: 5
Light source: 4
Flash: 25
Lens focal length: 6
Sensing method: 2
Custom rendered: 0
Exposure mode: 0
White balance: 0
Digital zoom ratio: 0
Focal length in 35 mm film: 36
Scene capture type: 0
Gain control: 0
Contrast: 0
Saturation: 0
Sharpness: 0

Which indicates the images were created using one of these:

and not one of these:
