I bought P6 and was an early adopter.  I can't say that I've ever had a problem with the program.  I use Poser 6 daily, make content for Poser 6 and so on.  I have to admit that my renders are often figure stills so I've never really encountered Rendering issues.  My outlook is different, I think Poser is fun and interesting and I find that feature enhancements in Poser 6 could never make me go back to an earlier version (I have all of them starting with 4).

Just posting my own positive experience.

For those who are upset, I'd advise to just wait for the full feature set to be released and then make your decision based on that.  To my knowledge, it's not shipping any sooner for those that buy today versus those who wait for the full list.  If the full feature set doesn't do it for you, then stick with version X of Poser or go DAZ Studio.  Really, that's about as simple and logical as it gets.
