What's the big deal about plugins/scripts? I mean, I've been reading such comments A LOT lately and I honestly don't see the problem. What about softimage? fluid simulation, rendering, even rigging is often tackled through plugins (and scripts/compounds).
I think it's not good for anyone go blindly saying that Softimage is so superior compared to "all the crap out there". Softimage is great, I love it, but it has some flaws too. Aaaaaand send, click (running for my life!)
