You forget that the hype pulled them in and they wanted the shinney new toys to play with, damn the price.

There a certain amount of people that could have cared less if it was discounted a few months later...they wanted the new toys now. They wanted to be the first, at the head of the line, look at me...again damn the price.

Bet a dollar (disclaimer: next month that dollar could be free) that there is a certain percentage if they would have known back then what they know now they still would have made the purchase anyway. But since we all like to moan while our renders are cooking...:laugh: they now have a platform from which to complain, even if they could have-would have known this was coming back last August or September.

But there is also a good percentage if they would have known back then what was coming they would have waited. Meaning it's not 100 percent of the buyers that have a beef. But, it's a little late to try to separate the wheat from the chaff so to speak.

It's this second group that is going to be very gun shy when the next paid release comes along. The early adpoters will just plow right into it.

I will flip it around, within days of every Poser release starting with P7, I have been right there at the front of the line, with my wallet open, screaming gimmy, gimmy, I want to play now, not 4 months from now. Not wait for Amazon or some other website to run a special or run to the book store to grab a magazine with a CD-DVD attached.
