Anton, Your comment about switching from P4 to Vicki isn't quite the same. I've invested thousands of dollars into clothing V1 and V2. I simply cannot continue to invest in clothing and such any longer. If I do purchase V3,(or by some miracle one of my family takes pity on this Poser addict) I will not have the funds to USE her as I cannot afford to buy a wardrobe for her. My income has been drastically reduced. But lets paint a different picture here. Lets say I buy Vicki 3 and I clothe her adequately. Next year there will be a new industry standard in Vicky and yet another set of clothes to buy. What then have I spent?
