Frankly I am afraid they did market it to a specific group, namely us,
the existing user base.
We fully accepted the "future is bright" PR that was going on and kept

Unfortunately for Education that EOL moniker is very much the kiss of death.
While businesses can use SI until its pried from their cold dead fingers, we

By the above definition, it seems to me that Softimage was *murdered *rather
