But people like pretty, limited edtion things to look at, even if it's only the box a piece of software came in.
Of course, that doesn't mean everyone cares, hell, I have the Winter Queen edtion of P6, but since I chose download only I didn't get the pretty limited-edition Winter Queen box, not that I'm really all that bothered by it.
And I really think I'll hold off on getting another version of Poser until they get better memory management, hyperthreading/multi-core support, and the ability to have more than 1 character with the amount of polygons a fully dressed Mill-3 figure has in a single scene.
A better rigging system would be nice, but if it completely invalidates the current one, then they need to incorporate both, and allow the 3rd-party figure developers (like DAZ and and anyone else who's created a figure, human or not) to work with the new rigging to provide versions of their characters that use it (not that we're likely to see that happen though, but maybe I'm just being pessimistic).
P6 works fine for me for the most part, P7 had better be a substantial improvement in both functionality, resource usage, and interface to get me to upgrade.
And it's not like efrontier can afford not to pay attention to the wants of the Poser hobbyist, because we seem to be the majority of the purchasers of the program, and if we stop buying....
