I've never had any significant troubles with Poser 5, and I've always thought it was a bad idea for DAZ to distance itself from Curious Labs and Poser 5. When they announced DAZ|Studio, many people immediately said they'd avoid Poser 5 and wait for DAZ|Studio. It's been two years wait now, and I still don't see DAZ|Studio as a viable alternative. Poser 4 was long overdue for an upgrade, and ProPak just wouldn't cut it for me. I don't want to add stuff onto an old program. I want a new version of the program.
