As long as a magazine like 3D-world takes Poser and even DAZ3D-studio serious, which they do: just look in the januari-issue, I consider it a major 3D-program.
Using 3DS-max, Maya, Cinema4D or whatever won't stop anybody from producing crap. On the other hand it's easier to produce crap with Poser; so... if someone makes a real piece of art with Poser, he is a better artist then when he would have used a "real" 3D-tool. Or am I missing something?

Best regards and be carefull with fireworks!
