Corel is in dire straits financially. They are doing many things to get their company and its products back on the track to being profitable. They may actually make it. But, they also MAY decide to sell their entire company off. If that happens, it will most likely to be to a company called Vector CC Holdings, L.L.C. (a company affiliated with Vector Capital, a venture capital firm), whom has showed SOME interest in taking them over. Who knows which will happen? Although I myself would place a bet on Vector Capital taking Corel. As far as Bryce is concerned, I am not worried at all. It is far too unique of a program for far too long to be forgotten. Whatever happens to Corel, Bryce WILL be purchased by someone else down the line and progressed further. From what I know now, that is almost a certain fact. The tactic of e-on (Vue) offering a discount to Bryce users is a clever one, lol. Truespace's Caligari had done the same some time ago. Sneaky and smart, imo, lol. But, whatever other programs come along, Bryce cannot be denied or forgotten. I will always use it, always suggest it for a beginning program. Either that or Vue. They are nearly the same program, with each having some advantages and disadvantages over the other. But for the price, both are THE best entry into the world of 3D, IMO. The reason I am trying Vue now, is because I had recently won it as a prize from e-on. Eventually, I can finally answer a LOT of Bryce vs. Vue questions, lol. AgentSmith
