There is somewhat of a bright side folks, let's be realistic. Just about every single hard core XSI user I'd known who fully committed to switching over to Maya without looking back has gone on to do bigger and better things in the industry. They work at places like Weta, ILM, Dreamworks, Disney, heck a guy some of us used to work with every day back in the early XSI era just won an Oscar for best VFX! Just drink the cool aid and go with the flow, and better days await for you too. The last thing you want is for Donald Sutherland to pick you out of a crowd, point at you, open his mouth and shriek (it sucks, it happened to me back when I was at ILM).
The only thing we have to fear is fear itself!... and spiders. Those little bastards are evil!
