I think you make a strong argument jjsemp. If e-frontiers decides to make a go of Poser they have the enginners and the know-how to make Poser 6 the product of the year! What is working in e-frontiers advantage is the delay in getting DazStudio out the door. We all remember the VHS/Beta tape struggle in which VHS finally won Beta as the standard even though Beta was a superior format. All because of good marketing and blasting the market with your product. The burden of the switch is coming from the Daz side as everyone already owns Poser. Sure the last release was poor but the previous release is with little scorn. In comes e-frontiers with their engineers and their fine rendering engine and you have an absolute great product with superior rendering, openGL, modern lighting and plug-ins, ie. particle simulation etc. Yeah, while the writing was on the wall for the demise of Curious Labs there seems to be a change of tide now. Perhaps the boys are back in town. Lets see who will be on top after all...
