You know, I admit we are not perfect myself included, I admit we cannot give the same amount of Marketing coverage as Softimage had pre-acquisition, and I accept that you are justified in feeling we have failed you. However I do not accept that we do not understand the products or the industry. We do. And you know, if people in Marketing did not fight for Softimage the default site for a product in the same revenue tier as Softimage is would be: http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/pc/index?id=13581855&siteID=123112 I am not going to pretend what we do for Softimage is on the same scale as 3ds max and Maya - it is not. We don't have the budgets to do that but my team works hard to give it extra love and attention. This is also true for people like Graham who is in Sales. I agree that we are a small faction within Autodesk world but we are here to try and help maurice

I really think it's a case of the right hand not knowing what the left hand is doing. I think the devs, support, etc., folks are all going forward full-steam ahead & have a great outlook on things. I think the pr, marketing & management folks still call the software "Soft Image" and don't seem to know what it does, who uses it, or really care much to find out. (I still, to this day, get sales calls from AD referring to it as soft image) It doesn't take much to look at this list & see all the people who'd love to showcase their use of Softimage. It's a brilliant piece of software and really is the best solution AD has to offer when you compare the 3 apps as they ship, unmodified. It's a shame AD (corporate) doesn't seem to know, understand or care about that. -Paul
