I will note however that cycles in all its glory and state of the art holier than thou declarations of software superiority cannot overcome the lumbering giant of cheesy burnt in specular ala Poser 4, as most succinctly illustrated by wolf's sterling example above.

Just kidding.

You need to change the shaders. Cycles can do a lot of really great stuff, but the standard conversion won't get rid of the burned in speculars. But since Cycles can do Anisotropic correctly, you can build good hair shaders.  

A ship in port is safe; but that is not what ships are built for.
