I know how you feel, but I gave in and bought it too. But hey things could be worse! Bryce could have been orphaned all together. I have to have a little faith, I'm a Carrara user, and we had to wait almost a year and a half for a patch that would allow the program to even run right right, it was crash city for everyone. So maybe Corel will eventually release some patches to improve things a bit. I do like the Tree Lab though. Bryce never was a fast rendering program, so a couple of more minutes won't kill us, but it would of been nice to see a big speed increase. Corel got my $99, so now I'll have to make the best of it. IT's still the best deal for landscape scenes ou there though, World Construction Set would be nice but I don't have $1000 to spend on it. But believe me, I do understand what you guy's are feeling, I'm torn about it, but I bought it anyway, I probobly should of waited,But............ Hang in there! kaom
