Very helpfull thread indeed.I was thinking about upgrading.
I was silly enuff to pre-purchase Poser5 when it came out and paid premium price for it (it dropped alot very quickly).I'm still waiting for the service packs for it on CD which they promised me (dial up user), fortunatly someone else was kind enuff to get them for me.Its still full of bugs tho.
I had real hopes the new owners of Poser might have started from scratch and rewrote the program so that it actually worked smoothly rather than trying to stuff in more features.
I think I'll save my money and stick with Pro Pack and render elsewhere.

Thanks :)
