Understood, but tread warily.
Poser4 when I bought it came with a lot of models. These were complete - one did not need you to buy extra texture packs, clothes, pose packs and so on - I just found them very ugly and do not know how good the current stuff is.
DAZ marketing policy is very astute - and yes, their stuff is good, but you could find yourself running through that $200 quite quickly and then wish you had spent it on Poser7 instead!
Examples of a recent annoyance:
It may appear that I am unhappy with DAZ, but actually I am delighted with my purchase at a special price of $25 'instead of $99' and the free DAZ Studio and its contents. When it comes to buying more stuff I recommend though that you check thoroughly what the package contains beforehand, and to be honest if I had the spare cash I would be investigating Poser7 very closely myself before treading further.....
Some interesting links that you may not have come across that provide free stuff:
