Before I start or rather finish this, I just want to say Vue is a great Program...just not my taste, and I did buy the Package even after owning Bryce for 2.5 years. After Reading what Rochr said I went & read Eons Site. I was trying to state this as nice as possible when I used the word "BADGERING". I don't agree with Poilticians Using Slander Style Tactics against their opponents just to TRY and make themselves look better, and It's just as childish when a professional Company resorts to the same measures. Now I understand that most of the Slams were from outside sources giving reviews, yet you don't have to post those if it's at the expense of sounding crude & rude. But "So What", What got me was the shear lack of investigating, & walking back in here and pointing a finger at me. Thank you for Sharing a nice price. Now it's my turn to share: Now is Your Chance to discover why Vue has become the Leading Landscape Application on the market! It's unbeatable at 3D scenery "In terms of sheer visual beauty, absolutely nothing beats Vue d'Esprit!" raved Computer Arts in its January 2000 review of Vue 3. Version 4 simply does it even better! Vue 4 is the ideal choice for the artist - hobbyist or professional - in search of quality 3D scenery. You'll soon find out why Vue d'Esprit has such a solid reputation of being the most easy to use and productive 3D scenery application around! "Vue d'Esprit 4 is an exceptional program [...] it will definitely give Bryce a run for it's money." The program is impressive, cheap, and by far the best tool in its class. It's time to forget Bryce; Vue d'Esprit is the new king of 3D-landscape renderers!" rendering effects and speed leave poor Bryce shivering behind!" Vue d'Esprit's exceptionally realistic vegetation has outshined Bryce's!" "Again, Vue is ahead of Bryce in terms of picture quality!" "Vue d'Esprit comes highly recommended and offers amazing value for money with dozens of features over Bryce at virtually half the cost!"
