Wolf makes the point that a Mac running Poser5 in OS X will have the multitasking capabilities. That might be a while in coming. I think Mac/Poser people ought to be upset by the announced "later, sometime" announcement from Curious Labs, but not blame them. They have to change the Mac version of Poser not just into Poser5, but into an OS X version. This is apparently significantly different. When Canvas (Deneba), which has always been Mac-centric, went through its last iteration, they put the Mac version in secondary position. I believe that they did NOTHING on the Mac side until the Windows flavor was set, then ported it back to Mac OS X. The results show. It looks like a Windows application (not counting the OSX look and feel of the shell), not a Mac one. CL is probably in the same boat now. I bet they will not start working on Poser5Mac until the Windows version is frozen. ::::: Opera :::::
