- My .02, I too started with FCopy and have uped all to FW4.01 ..
- As well as FData and FCalc. I know I'm not alone in buying SWood
- products.
- My point ? I also use LightWave SA 3.5. Now you wanna look at how
- another CO., NewTek handeled their porting/shifting of their product
- to the PC market. Or listen to owners of the Amiga version of LW 4.0.
- Ok, try SCALA, Do I really need to go on ?? Actually the real question
- is do I want these CO's to survive, YES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- The User has alway's had options, You want a PC ?? Then be gone, I want
- to still use my Amiga's.
- Some Amiga CO's have shifted to the PC, He** I would too, That's where
- the money is at.
- Some are trying to do both, Going PC and AMIGA at the same time.
- Can I Bit**, moan and groan when I feel like, YEP, but I better take
- a deep breath of Reality.
- It's in my best interest for SoftWood, NewTek, SCALA, NOVA (No I'm not
- starting a rumor 'bout Image F/X), But I would'nt be shocked)
- To not only survive but prosper.....
