I can see why people say they don't agree, but it saves ME a hell of a lot of money.

While it saves YOU a lot of money, it's making excellent gaming companies like Sirtech Canada go out of business.

Now about 3D apps. A LONG time ago a friend gave me a copy of trueSpace1, and I didn't even KNOW at the time it was a bigtime app, hell, I thought it was SHAREWARE! lol, but After I found out, I saved my money up and purchaced it. It was $799.00, and was the second best app I have used. (Adobe Photoshop 5.5 is my #1 app I bought and use). and you don't see me warzing Adobe Photoshop 6 "JUST to have the latest version" -- I do without.
