Bryster,
2TB? well yes, actually! my art rig as a 1TB drive and 2x500 gig drives ;)
as for my art being better or worse, well...that's entirely subjective and you know it ! bonk :p
Doesn't really matter in the end because it's just about what you, or I, or anyone, enjoys doing :)

But you could do a hell of a lot more/better art with more advanced apps, I know you love Bryce(hey I did once, still do in a way), but you should try other apps to see what you may enjoy :)

Art apps are as unqiue to the individual, as to whether traditional artists like acrylic or guache or oils or inks or whatever. You adore Bryce I adore Vue, but nto good to close our eyes ot other things.

I've tried and bought quite a few apps over the years, but health etc limits my ability to "dig into" them. I like Lightwave, but just don't have time ot hammer into it, alas.
I've found 3DCoat a LOT more user friendly than Zbrush, lol. But Zbrush's Zspheres are absolute amazing for modelling organic creatures basic bodies.
Rhino I adore using for modelling (though one day I want to buy T-Splines to let me do more organic/poly-like modelling inside it)
Maxwell is a jaw dropping renderer.
UVMapper is great for UVmapping
etc etc.
