Quote - Where does that come from?

Oh.....I've seen it.  While it's rarely -- if ever -- stated quite so blantantly: it's fairly obvious that it's a type of snobbery which is often found lurking under the surface of an occasional off-handed comment.  And not just in these forums -- many of the anti-Poser remarks that one sees in high-end forums fall into this same category.  "It didn't cost much, so it can't be worth much, either."

It's a line of thinking similar to judging the value of a work of art based upon the amount of time that it took to make it.  I.E. -- an 8-hour render is inherently better than a 1-hour render.  Not necessarily -- but hey, it cost more -- so it follows that it's got to be worth more.  To follow the logic: a 12-hour render is better than an 8-hour render........and so forth.

I suppose that the best 3D app in the world is the most expensive one.  Which is a possiblity -- but I wouldn't just automatically assume that it's true.
