Quote - one more question on the same topic... since i'm going to have a machine capable of 64-bit processing, i am thinking of upgrading from Poser 6 to Poser Pro (finally, been using Poser 6 for ages now)...

smart move? dumb move?

Why not Poser 8? 

OK I admit I'm one of the people without any major problems with P8, and I've always figured that you might as well go rfor the newest ersion when you ARE upgrading. So along the same route I'd recommend W7 in the computer is in any way up to it, and it sounds like it is :)

I havent tried W7 myself, I'm a happpy (!) Vista user, although I have XP on my netbook. Oh and I put both my desktop and my netbook into hibernation mode every time I shut t down. I HATE when Windows makes me do a "real" reboot - I do it whenever an update demands it of course, but I like not having to open the zillions of little programs I have running - and for that matter, shutting down some things that windows insists on starting on my behalf (yes (I've already weeded out a lot in the startup thingie, but still...)

Hibernation is nice. Yes it takes up some space, but the gain is bigger than the loss of space, at least to me it is :)

BTW My netbook has 1 gb of ram and is fully able to run Poser 7. It won't run Poser 8 but I think that is an install issue - and since P7 works from an external harddisk, I never bothered with Poser 8 on that one - it is just for testing things out anyway :)

You just can't put the words "Poserites" and "happy" in the same sentence - didn't you know that? LaurieA
