P4 is on the gradual downslide -- as it has been for the past 3 years or more now.  It's just that P4 is taking a lot longer to die than some of us believe that it should have.  But it inevitably will die, as that's in the nature of things.

There was a "long live P4!" thread not too long ago, in which we were told that P4 would be around for a long time to come........and for some, that might be so.  Just like some few individuals are no doubt still running Windows 95.  However: the P4 diehards (whether they are diehards by choice or out of necessity) will find themselves feeling more and more isolated with time.  The nit-picking question of "Why ef is still selling Poser Artist (which is P4 in disguise)?" has now been rendered moot.

I believe that P7 is going to be a major break-point for Poser.  A break-point that the vast majority of the community will not be able to ignore -- nor will they want to.  As for P4 users........?  They'll either be updating........or grumbling.
