Rhino 4.0 Evaluation
This fully functional (except the clipboard) version will save 25 times. After that it is still
functional except it will not save and plug-ins will no longer run.
Flamingo Evaluation
Flamingo brings photo-realistic rendering to Rhino. This
is a fully functional version except it has limited materials, light
fixture, and plant libraries, and it also draws thin black lines across
the final rendered image.

Brazil for Rhino works unrestricted for 15 days. After that period,
it is limited to a resolution of 640x480 and stamps a watermark onto every
rendering.
Penguin Evaluation
Penguin brings freehand sketching, watercolor painting and cartoon-like
rendering to Rhino. Penguin is a conceptual, sketch and cartoon,
non-photometric scan line renderer. With Penguin you can create stylized
images of your models with an artistic look for enhanced graphic and
visual appeal.
