I've got no interest in Poser Pro at all and I'm still wondering why I would pay $150-$200 for just some 64bit rendering and integration that has been around a long time in the form of body studio? The new features will not use, not on 64bit operating system yet (even though hardware supports it), don't use high end applications at all and don't create games anymore. I'm still suprised that Smith Micro believes that the so called pros will buy this application just because they've added the Pro to it.

All I want to know is will Poser 7 be on sale soon for a blow out price or is it time for me to finally switch to D/S?

The latest updates don't offer anything substantial at all to even justify the price tag on it. Poser Pro Base offers 7 new features and minimal new content and they dare to ask $150 for it..... $150 for 1 majorm new feature and some minor improvements, they're joking right???? I think they've finally gone mad...... sorry, but I've been a long time Poser supporter, but this is getting ridiculous. Unless Poser 7 will go on sale soon, Poser 6 will be my last version of Poser. I will no longer support an application that asks more and more money for upgrades, while offering less and less improvements and features (refering to P7 & Poser Pro Base).

Poser Pro Base isn't worth the money at all, but I can see some people who own Poser 6/7 and one of the more expensive applications that are supported. But I feel sorry for them if they do so, it's common knowledge that Body Studio (now called poser fusion) can be a huge pain to use. All I can do is wish Smith Micro and the new Poser Pro users a lot of luck, they're both going to need it!

Well, that's closing the final chapter for Poser as far as I'm concerned. Time to seriously consider alternatives or if I can live with Poser 6 for a long time, I guess I could.
