mylemonblue: I understand your position regarding P6 and Curious Labs. As a consumer, the decision is yours to make. I guess you have to consider what is a legitimate bugfix and what is a legitimate upgrade. In my book, it's an upgrade. After all, aren't upgrades designed to improve upon or add features and fix certain shortcomings in previous versions? A bugfix addresses current problems with a program and fixes them. An upgrade fixes the problems and then adds new problems that need to be fixed. Therefore, since Poser 6 fixed some of Poser 5's bugs and now has new bugs of its own... it's definately an upgrade! ;-) Now, if you want to talk about CL disappointing its customers, ask any of the Mac users out there who had to wait over a year after Poser 5 was released before the Mac version was made available to them. All of our PC counterparts had a year to play with (and complain about) Poser 5, while we Mac users sat and wathced the Poser world march on and leave us behind. Had CL pulled that bonehead play again with Poser 6, I'm certain I would have given up on Poser and Curious Labs altogether. BTW: No ill will is taken. Best wishes!
