Well I doubt I will die but I will become very uncomfortable ... I make my living on a computer also. Currently, I am aiming more toward illustration than the Graphic Design I have been doing for the past few years with illustration on the side. That being said if Poser went poof altogether I would find it rough to do some work. Not impossible but definately more time consuming. Much of the time Poser is at the base of the illustration, sometimes as the final product but it is normally there in some degree if nothing but a pose to begin with. That being said I have to agree about the world not ending and other things coming along but just had to say that no poser would suck ... And Iwould probably go broke hiring models or break something jumping up and down in front of a mirror trying to see what this pose looks like at this angle .. be well
