By the same token, we also don't know how long it took to develop Poser 1, so I also tried to take that into account in my comparison.  That's why I said it might have been the same amount of time to either Poser 2 or 3.

That's a lot of years of development.  But it also puts DAZ Studio on a more even keel when you compare it to the earlier years of Poser's development, rather than comparing it to the features that we now have. Those features didn't happen overnight, is the point I was trying to make.
