Okay... now we're cooking.
Winni- Some good ideas there, and although you have pointed to a lot of features that are lacking in Max, they're mostly not valid reasons for B3Ders
not to make the switch, because they're thing B3D doesn't have, either. Maybe I should have made clear I was aiming this at that crowd. I think I'll stick some of your points in a 3rd list. I, too would be willing to pay good money for some of those features, but if Mark raised the price to those levels, he would lose a lot of support.
Puki- Lack of built in 3D. Fair point, but it's a work in progress, so not a lot you can do about that. What state is miniB3D in at the moment? Why don't you like it?
Winni/Mark- Documentation. Definitely. Added it to the list. Mark you mention the perceived learning curve of Max. I hin you may be right if I have read correctly that you think it has a lot to do with the documentation.
