?  That the base code was being rewritten from the ground up.  Not exactly part of the 'official' marketing - but this was noted from Curious Labs own.  Part of the code may have been optimized and some rewritten - to support the third-party interfaces being sewn into Poser.  But most of it was the same - and you can go through the archives for evidence.

Marketing tends to put the (any) product in the best light possible - even if it isn't exactly true.  Look at the current "7 reasons" - just put up what it can do, what's new, etc. and be done with it.  I have a TiVo - I tend to skip commercials. ;)

C makes it easy to shoot yourself in the foot. C++ makes it harder, but when you do, you blow your whole leg off.
