Quote - If Smith Micro was smart they'd slap a security feature right back on Poser and tell the complainers to shut up and actually try paying for Poser for a change.  Then it might actually make some money.

Actually, no - it would likely be cracked within a week, and the security feature excised. Right now there are copies of Vista floating about P2P that has been cracked; same with OSX 10.5, and damned near every program you can think of. Right now Poser 7, cracked, is available right there on P2P. Same with 3DS Max (which does have a lot of strong DRM features on it, and has had 'em for years - the cracked version however works just fine w/o it). The only thing DRM hinders is the legit users when the anti-piracy mechanisms go awry. It's been proven time and time again. -- > Quote - So, before you go accusing 90% of the people here, I'd suggest you either start backing up your claims with facts, or quit accusing

Jen? I think s/he is correct insofar that large numbers of folks who pop into Rendo for one reason or another are prolly using pirated copies of Poser and whatnot. While not 90%, I bet it's a pretty healthy number nonetheless - a quorum if not a majority. A quick peek among the usual suspect apps would show a healthy trade in warezed version of most stuff - including Poser. /P
