I have just had the same thoughts when I saw the x-mas gifts of 2009. Without SAMS3D´s giveaway, it had been a sad holiday this year. When I remember the years ago, so it seems that most vendors have stopped to donate a freebie for x-mas.It´s a pity becours it always was a nice tradition at RenDo the years ago.
So a big thanks to SAMS3D and all vendors which have been so kind to bright up our days and....runtimes ;-)
