Love the software and its nice light grey interface. The problem we would have as a company is freelancers. We gear up and down depending on the project and if its difficult to find freelancers, because they're a dwindling resource, then that's a problem. The major educational establishments don't teach softimage.

I'd personally be happy trundling along with Soft for a few years to come but it probably needs to be one part of the arsenal we have.

Stop running, it will take years for other softwares including Maya to be as efficient and slim as Softimage.

As long as your able to still work with Softimage and deliver the job. Who cares what are you working with.

As I said before I never heard of a client saying "Hey you work sucks because it is not done in Maya". Au contraire. What I've heard from my clients is "Good job! Everything went smooth and peachy".

So... again.  I see no reason to start fleeing like a headless chicken.

        Chaos with the soft community would be exactly what AD want.
        Divide and rule through fear. Bugger that for a game of
        soldiers out of sheer bloody mindedness to not let AD have it
        all their own way. To buy a pro tool like softimage purely to
        kill it a couple of years later is an act of entirely
        unethical destruction. Roofs are kept over heads and kids fed
        on the back of software that come with the pro label and price.

        People, us, will continue to be able to service our clients
        using soft for a number of years to come but it would be
        prudent to learn something new along the way. Maya with it's
        wide user base and antiquated work flow and elderly
        architecture, Houdini might have a steep learning curve but it
        seems to be a more up to date suggestion. Plus AD won't get
        your cash.

        Revenge is best served cold for a reason....
