Quote - uh..sorry, this is legit. You have to go to Daz to get the serial number, and it really, really works. Honest, I downloaded it (now I have 2 copies..;), installed it, and  it works.

The 'spam' part is that Daz will be offering a Bryce 6 upgrade by 12/31 (hopefully sooner), and those who have this version will be able to get the upgrade price, instead of the full price. And it's not a fully functional (nothing drastic, it's just missing materials, and you can download the materials pack from Daz as part of the registration process. Skies and more materials you can get on dozens of places on the net.) Once you get all the pieces in place, it works just like Corel's offering.

Sometimes it is too good to be true, and sometimes it's all good..;)

Getting Poser 5 for free may well be legit, but if you follow through all the pages you
end up at a page where you have to buy some service to get Poser 5 for free.
None of which I was interested in.  And if you don't sign up to buy one of these
services that's all the further you get.  So I just exited out.  That's the free part,
they give you a version of Poser no longer in production that probably doesn't
cost that much anymore, but the money comes from the services they are
trying to sell.  It's like the car dealers giving away a free DVD player.
If you buy one of their cars.

Oh well, I did get Bryce 5.0 for free, but it appears to be the same thing as the
one I bought several years ago as Corel Bryce 5.0.
