Okay, I don't know the specifics of your company... where you're located, what your native languages are... but this bugged me on Poser 4 and now it's bugging me on Poser 5, which just arrived an hour ago. The statement right above the serial/registration numbers says on both P4 and P5: "IMPORTANT! Do not loose[sic] or throw away!" I would have thought someone would have caught this typo by now. It's LOSE... the word you want is LOSE! To LOOSE something is to set it free, such as "I let loose the wild pony before he trampled me." The proper context here is "I don't want to lose my car keys." I'm so sick of illiteracy in written communication since the popularity of the internet has boomed. It's sad to see a professional company with an outstanding product make such a mistake, not just on one product, but on TWO. Tighten up, CL, you're looking sloppy.
