** they didn't have to shell out two hundred bucks for it.** Try 900 and you'll be closer to what I had to pay. And considering the price drop so fast after it came out I couldn't even make my money back when I sold my copy :/ So Daz|Studio is at least $900 worth of value compared to Poser 5. If D|S runs on my system, doesn't stall and shut down for no apparent reason and doesn't make my computer dialup the net then I'll be a happy camper - and even if it did, it STILL won't have cost me anything.
