Ryan is designed to take (limited) advantage of the newer rigging features of Poser 8 and Poser Pro 2010. The figure is licensed to be distributed with those versions of Poser. I have licenses for Poser 5, 6, 7, and Poser Pro, but I haven't opened those programs since Poser 8 came out.
Some people have found reasons to use Poser 7 because of problems in P8/PP2010. Conceivably there might be reasons for someone who owns Ryan to open a scene in an earlier verson of Poser. So, knowing about compatability problems would be helpful. I, myself, have not yet had a need to do so.
I tried Ryan out some, but there is little support for "him." A search at Content Paradise finds only three products (none at Renderosity, RDNA, or Poser Addicts). With decent added textures, morphs and content, Ryan could be as useful as most figures. At least there is Poser/Wardrobe Wizzard support for the figure, so there should be plenty of cloths.
Maybe some one has actually tried Ryan in Poser 7, or would be willing to run a test. I am at work, and cannot do it now.

Post Script:
The never ending complaint about figures, Ryan too, is that they are not proportioned like real people. A lot of users don't like "his" looks. Some one should be able to whip out a quick render to post.
