One of my peeves is how steve cooper flat out lied and said that Poser 5 was a "complete rewrite." Remember that? Three years in tehmaking, and then we saw a Poser with the exact same interface, some 3rd part add-in hacked on to it. and (The only thing that was needed was to see the same box with "4" crossed off and "5" written in magic marker.) Miraculosly this "rewrite" had the exact same bugs. So when faced with the question "Was it hard duplicating the bugs for the new version?" they admitted that the "core application" was not changed. Oh, gee, thanks for telling us that after the fact. Sounds like Poser 6 is going to be bug fix. Thats a pet peeve of mine. In reality it should be called v5.5. Poser 6.0 should be a total rewrite. I know. It aint gong top happen. Legacy code is far cheaper. And who cares if the users think its unusable what do they know. They buy it because its in a nice shiny new box.
