Well I'm pleased to see that Daz are developing Bryce but I'm going to be VERY cautious until I see what the 5.5 upgrade is like! If the OGL viewport and faster renderer is using the same technology as DazStudio I won't be rushing to upgrade as I've found Studio to be apallingly slow. Nothing I've seen from the renderer has impressed me so far either. There's no upgrade path for existing Bryce owners apart from this 3d starter offer. There's nothing in this bundle that I want and it only promises $30 off the Bryce5.5 price. This immediately makes me think "if they're offering $30 off what is the full price going to be?!" If they have made substantial improvements to Bryce I'll probably upgrade but I'm certainly not putting a downpayment on it without seeing what I'll be getting! - Baz
