Yes I remember that 450$ offer, it was limited (less option than
advance) if I remember correctly.
I remember there was a lot of discussion on xsi base around this as well.
... Well, the good news is price doesn't do everything.
And for the rest, Asia is the future hoppefully.

not sure.. XSI was just 450$ for four years and people hesitated to
get it anyway.
It should have taken the market by storm at that point. I've got a
lot of opinions
on all subjects - :P - but I'm really not sure why that didn't happen.
Not sure an hypothetic Fxtree rebuild would "save" SI, though. It's just too
bad it has been completly abandonned, with no new (even small) improvements.
Since we're a Particle software, I'm just hopping Ice developpement will
continue to be the strong part of XSI.
Weirdly, since AD bought us correspond to a time of "prosperity" for SI
users . I mean, there are now a very big amount of Compounds and Addons
available, much more then back in the Xsi-base days.
Then again Autodesk bought Softimage only four months after ICE was released.
