Well I was such a true Apple fan from the day I bought my Apple IIe that I thought I would bleed 6 colors. I have had a Mac since the day the Mac II came out and had to pay $6000 for that 16mhz machine. Then moved on to a 200Mhz Mac clone when they were available and stomping regular Macs into the ground. I never had any problems running Poser on my Mac or getting any model or texture to work. The problems I had were that there were no affordable or good modeling or graphics programs available on a Mac. So I was having to use my wife's PC to make models using Rhino3D and textures using PSP5. Then put them on a disk and go back to my Mac to render in Poser. Well soon I saw that Apple was spinning it's wheels over there, despite what Mr. Jobs was saying. The PC world was just advancing much faster than the Macs in every field. So I finally decided to make the switch and built my own 1Ghz AMD based PC. For far less than I could get a simularly outfitted 450mhz G4 Mac. I have to say I did not regret it. I have not found anything I really missed from the Mac. Well there is one thing, I wish there was a program available on PCs to make QuickTimeVR files from photos. Mike
