Here's some facts about Poser 6 - no hearsay, my personal experience. P4 2.8 HTT Northwood, Gigabyte 8000MX mainboard with Intel 865PE chipset, 1.5 GB DDR 400 RAM (2x Siemens, 2x Kingston), ATI Radeon9600Pro: Poser 6 works fast and fine. Never had the dreaded memory bug, even before SR1 Athlon2700+, Abit mainboard (VIA chipset), Highpoint 472 ATA RAID controller, 1 GB RAM (2x 512 Transcend DDR333), Ti4200: Poser 6 works fast and fine. The pre-SR1 memory bug hit only once. No problems at all since upgrading to SR1. Athlon64 3500+, MSI mainboard, nForce3 Platinum chipset, 4 GB RAM (4x 1 GB Transcend DDR400), GeForce6800LE: Poser 6 works very fast and very fine. Acer Aspire 1700C portable (P4 2.66, SiS M650 chipset, 1 GB Transcend DDR333, SiS integrated graphics card, 64 Mb shared memory) Poser 6 runs fine. Not very fast due to the slow graphics chip though. All systems run WinXP SP2, latest patches. About the price, $129 is only for US citizens. Non-US citizens pay more - seems to have to do with export fees. Still, CL doesn't overcharge as much as (for example) Adobe or Apple.

The pen is mightier than the sword. But if you literally want to have some impact, use a typewriter
