I am still amazed by seeing what big studios with a few software developers can produce as amazing technologies in a year and what is released every year for 3d packages by AD... I can clearly say that the status of technologies last time I checked were ten times more exciting (in rigging, lighting, compositing, ... fields) than what we get this year... What is released to public don't really show what new technologies in this industry are and in-use in studios... Though, the quality is there and the product is pleasant to play with! -- jon
