Maybe CL's just realizing that poser's not worth as much. We bought it with dreams of what it might be, they sold it expecting it to be wonderful, but now that it's had some real-world "testing," they're learning otherwise. Considering that there are an enormous number of hardware and software configurations available, and also considering that beta testing is usually done by a limited number of people, it's probably impossible to detect ALL bugs in a software product before it is released. That goes for any software product, not just CL in particular. In a community where the negative comments usually far outweigh the positive ones, we are seeing the reverse in relation to Poser 6. As far as I'm concerned, the signal-to-noise ratio is nowhere near the volume it was after the release of P5. I see more positive than negative comments. I'd say P6 is doing real well so far, considering that the folks in the Poser community are quite a talkative lot. 8-) CL has been very responsive to the bad reports thus far. They are working on solutions as quickly as they can.
