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.

Theres one very big difference between then and now . At the time that that 
offer came out. The worlds economy was racing ahead. Money just wasnt so much 
of an object as it is now. People bought Maya mostly because it was all over 
magazines, websites etc. XSI was very rarely mentioned.

Now the worlds economy is mostly in the gutter so I can bet that if that a 
similarly valued offer was given again with some decent marketing it would be a 
very different story.=
