The first windows version of Softimage|3D was 3.01 for Windows NT 3.5.  It 
was the only version to have the IRIX interface.  Softimage|3D v3.51 was the 
2nd release on Windows NT 4.0 and the first to have the ugly Windows 
interface which lasted until it's retirement.

XSI was always a native windows application.  Early versions of XSI came 
bundled with Softimage|3D, not the other way around.  This was mostly to 
fill the holes of XSI's incomplete feature set with respect to polygon 
modeling and particles.  Once those holes were filled, XSI shipped on it's 
own and the price was raised.

Wasn't v3 the first real Windows version?
I can recall that v1 and 2 were a 'complement' to the Irix SI|3D installers.
My archive goes back to v.3.5.1 for the first Windows version.
