Random Vectors In a nonuniform bounding box

Well I''m making a particle engine and I have it all down on paper and yesterday I went ahead and started coding and of course I ran in to a problem that I had not thought of while designing the system. In anycase I need a way to make random vectors that stay inside a bounding box that doesn''t necessarily have the same sized sides on each side. Like a a pyrimid with the top cut off. Does any know??

Yeah that''s true, it''s not a completely arbitary box. If you had the t values not all 0-1, but some could go to 2 for example then I htink you could do it. But I don''t know how you''d find these restrictions other than looking at it!
