Well, Carrara might be amoung the apps they see as part of their new direction. I'll go ya one better: I just got an offer for Kai's Vector Effects, which is a product that I do NOT think fits thier new direction. The never-to-be-sufficiently-damned jerks are still selling everything they can, even though they know they're not going to be able to support all of it. That's pretty skeevy.
