My point about Pret-A-3d taking blame is that I know he didn't have any involvement with the making of Luxrender, but if he allows others to mistakenly think that, then those people will hold him accountable for bugs in Lux.  Which of course wouldn't be fair.

I realize that this is an effective marketing strategy, but not one without dangers down the road.  I will say he has said several times that Luxrender is not his; however people still seem to thank him for Luxrender, not just Reality.  That is not his fault either. 

My rant really was about the people who are making this mistake over and over.  It's understandable once or twice, but not in every post they make.

And yes, I bought Reality, and I like it for the most part.  Since I use Poser more often i will patiently follow the development of LuxPose; which will be better!
