Quote - How does making a binary for 32 and 64 jack up the price? Since computers are heading in that direction anyways, isn't it a good thing to offer your customers this?
Oh......I suspect that there's going to be a lot more to this than just 64-bit support. But for those who only need 64-bit, and nothing else -- here it is. Once again: that wasn't what P7 was intended to be.
And, oh yeah......it appears that "offering their customers this" is precisely what they are doing here.
Quote - I do have to agree with the person who mentioned Shade, that is one heck of a price difference. $50-$100 wouldn't matter to me so much, but hundreds? Heck, I can buy net render and MOCCA for Cinema for that price.
Once again, we're jumping the gun here. Which isn't unusual.
Here's a reminder (whispering): *we haven't seen the price structure yet: so we are engaging in pure-T speculation.*Personally, I'll wait until I actually know what the pricing structure IS, before I start slamming e-frontier for it.
