He means procedural displacement and it is powerfull, and realtime preview for displacement, that is why it feels like procedural modeling which it is not.

But it has some really incredible procedural modeling. The level of the detail you can achieve with Lightwave's procedurals is really amazing, something we're greatly missing in XSi...
