XENOPHONZ:

New Coke was a marketing ploy. When the Coca-Cola company returned to "Classic Coke" they did not actually return to the old formula. The new "Classic Coke" used corn syrup instead of sugar, and tasted different. The public was distracted from noticing this by the amount of time they couldn't get a "Classic Coke" (until it was "reintroduced") and by the fact that they seemed to get what they demanded (instead of what they actually wanted). Cokes imported from Mexico (in glass bottles) still use sugar. Try one out sometime and taste the difference.

Incidentally, SM at CP has just put Passport Memeberships on sale a penny under $50 (USA), and Poser 6 on sale for under $3 (use with the passport). For under $53 (USA) one can get Poser 6, and upgrade to Poser 7 for a reduced amount. This is a little different, but not unlike the deals that EF gave just before announcing Poser 7. Could this be the kick-off for Poser Pro? DAZ has lately introduced new figures and new D|S versions at about the time that Poser brings out a new version.
