Hate to break it to you, but the reviews at Amazon are not much more reliable than magazine reviews. One might argue they're even worse, because you don't know who really wrote them and why. Any reviews in any venue that is directly involved in making money on the product being reviewed is suspect.

Also, quoting one review from any source doesn't prove anything that isn't already obvious. Take any cruddy application and you'll certainly find at least one person who is satisfied with it.

(I'm not bashing Poser 8 but rather the comments made by stepson)
