"We lose Poser/Daz thingy but they lose jobs/houses, the community will mourn them for 5 minutes then forget them both." I disagree. There are still plenty of Poser 4 users who refuse to upgrade to Poser 5 that DAZ can support for many years to come. I have Poser 4 & 5 and still prefer to use 4. I may never use Poser 5 since CL really didn't upgrade the features I was looking for (animation improvements and the face room isn't what I expected). And the rest of the program just got more complicated for no reason. I think they were/are trying to attract high-end application users such as 3DS Max and get away from the hobbyists. I would miss DAZ for more than 5 minutes, because their customer service and quality beats anything else I've seen on the Net (not to knock many of the fine items in the MP).
