As I was straightening up and doing some tossing out of 5-1/4-in. disks, old CP/M software and a ton of accumulated graphics cards, memory chips (yes DIMM's), modems and other now useless computer detritis, I came across my original Poser 2 CD in its original case. I installed it, but realized when it asked for the serial number that I have no idea where that could be. Unfortunately, it's neither on the case nor on the disk.

I thought with P7 coming out, that I would do some renders in P2 just for giggles to post and show the differences, so I contacted e frontier in mid October requesting my serial number and eventually received the following response:

"Sorry for the delay.  When Poser 2 was released, it was released by Fractal Designs.  The rights to Poser was then sold to MetaCreations, which in turn sold the rights to Curious Labs, which in turn sold the rights to eFrontier.  In short, we have no records on any of the Poser products prior to Poser 4.  Unfortunately, that means that we are unable to give you any serial numbers for Poser 2, nor do we know where the serial number can be found.

Sorry for the inconvenience.  If you have any other questions, please feel free to ask me."

While I know some folks may have some negative stuff to say about my asking for a serial number, I really don't think, given the circumstances that we will be incurring any liablities here, so if someone does still happen to have a P2 serial number around, I'd love to use it to install P2 just to see what it looks like and to render out a couple of poses to post here for comparison and for the sake of  'the good old days."

TIA,
