I'm not sure this statement is entirely true. The senior VP of M&E at the
time of the purchase was Marc Petite, originally from Softimage and one of
the driving forces behind the early development of XSI. When he stepped
down not long ago, I believe he was replaced by Marc Stevens, the former
president of Softimage at the time of the acquisition.
