Good lord, some of those stats are eye-opening. There's still an alarming proportion of people with no shader capabilities (17.8%), and there's still people with only half a gig of RAM? (19%) o_O
See, that's my problem: I just got a new nVidia card, but the BRDF shader doesn't work properly without the 175.80 drivers installed. But then Left 4 Dead won't play properly without the current drivers-- now I'm torn :(

The 9000 tris are for everything on your pedestal. Which means if you were doing something like a necromancer, the necromancer could have 5000 tris, his artifact 500, and you could have a skeleton and a zombie each with 1750 tris.
First of all, thank you for your input. the polycount for the model is 1708 and has a 512x512 texture for the m4, plus 256x256 textures for the scope and the grenade launcher.
