For what it's worth, here's a suggestion for whatever is left of Curious Labs.
Recently you have been offering a number of "bundles", designed I suppose to encourage continued use of your products. Well....unfortunately.....I purchased Poser 5 before Christmas because I was dumb enough to believe that the price of $319 really was only going to be good through the end of December.
In January, you came out with a Vue4/Poser 4 bundle for $320....which I would have purchased instead of Poser 5, since I really want to use the two together.
Anyway.....how about a "special price" on Poser 4 for those of us who purhcased Poser 5, but do not own P4! Here's an example of the ad you could run:
"Did you purchase Poser 5 and discover that your 700mhz Pentium with 256 mb of ram (system requirements recommended by us)runs parts of it like it was driving in wet concrete? Not ready to spend $1,000 on a new 2 ghz computer with 1G of ram so you can really use the new hair room? Well.....we at Curious Labs "feel your pain"! And we have a deal for you!! Send proof of purchase for your "drop dead easy to use" Poser 5 along with $50 and we will send you a copy of Poser 4 and Pro Pack! Three software packages for the price of one! Two that will work now....the other you can put on the shelf until you can afford to buy that new super computer and we fix some more bugs! But hurry.....this is a limited time offer! The new Curious Labs Team is committed....or will be very soon....and the last person who knows how to package our software for mailing is due to leave in a month. We at Curious Labs appreciate your business and look forward to working with you in the future.....if DAZ will only hire us!"
