Dude, it's only a sneak peek. No one would buy anything because of an "announce" and thats what it is. AD says "hello, we're soon to release a new version" I don't have a problem with that. Wait until the release, then you can make a decision if its worth buying or renewing your subscription.

Instead more clear and straight forward approach would probably be way more appreciated. After all decisions to buy next batch of licences are rarely made based on sneak peak and stuff but more on hard facts. If you provide all tech details that are needed for making such decision.. all future planing is easier as well. Right now it is really dark ahead and anyone thinking what to purchase next is really left alone with hardly any useful information. example: Ok 2014 Softimage will be release <enter date> - What is fixed - What is new - Price changes if any Those details are probably only one that interest people. Hardly anyone care if some celebrity start clicking on sponge bob view cube:"uuuu what does this button do!" :) On Thu, Feb 28, 2013 at 8:41 PM, olivier jeannel <[email protected]> wrote: Agree, if the asian market is what is keeping SI development alive, then I happily go for it !
