Hmm well thanks, that makes sense. Suddenly I don't know whether to hope that they will stuff a LOT of new features into Bryce6 (and thus raise the price), or leave it pretty much the same as they did with 5.5 and just improve a few existing features (and thus leave the price alone). Wouldn't it be nice if they stuffed a TON of new improvements into Bryce6, but somehow left the price the same? =) Wonder if something like that will ever happen in my lifetime lol. Thanks AS.
