AS .... I sincerely hope that BRYCE becomes the flagship software for DAZ and a profitable one at that and I appreciate you taking time to clarify matters. Having read many, not all of the posts regarding this subject at the DAZ BRYCE forum, it is clear that DAZ has no intention of offering a upgrade path to 5.5 for CORAL BRYCE owners. Steve Kondris has stated this very clearly in one of the threads. Their reasoning being that they, DAZ, did not receive any of the moneies from the previous CORAL version of BRYCE. I consider this to be a very hard slap to the face. I would have paid a fair price to upgrade to 5.5, but damned if I will buy 5.5 all over again at full price. In short, DAZ can benefit from an upgrade price from me and many others or they can loose out all together. Some money is better than no money. Folks really need to read the posts over at the DAZ froum for BRYCE, there are posts in several different groups so look around. Look for posts by ORIO, he makes a very clear case for what I am attempting to explain. Apparently DAZ fully intends to develop and support BRYCE well into the future, but they have left me and probably many thousands more out in the cold with this decision about 5.5. I am glad there are no hard feelings between us, I just do not think that DAZ has thought this out very well.
