At most, as good as Poser 5? Well, maybe, just maybe DS will be stable, will do exactly what it says on the tin, and be modular, so you can buy in the bits you need, rather than paying for the things you wouldn't touch with a bargepole. DAZ ain't stupid, and they know damn well there's a market for an entry level pose/render app which is actually usable, expandable and does what it's supposed to. Probably. I don't get your drift about DAZ being hype. Everything I ever bought from them works just fine and dandy. Any problems I had were sorted out in a reasonable length of time. As content providers, they are second to none. Customer service is not as good as it should be, but it's a damn sight better than most others.
