Well, I mostly model in Carrara for Poser at this point (although I've started using Carrara's render engine recently and really want to spend more time learning it!). I bought Inspire to try, and while I realize it's an older and more limited program than LW, I find I still like Carrara better for modeling. The same goes for C4D Go edition. Maybe because I learned Carrara first but I can manipulate the mesh faster and more intuitively. Plus I like the Carrara community, the LW'ers seem a bit stuck on themselves, if you know what I mean, since I didn't have the newest version, or the "full" version, I wasn't worth their time to talk to. Oh, well, "to each his own" I guess. mike
