All you people out there dis'in MAX obviously are thick-headed ignorant people who simply don't know it. All of us who use it and are familiar with it are fine with it. I run it on Dual Athlon MP 1600 with 512 megs of DDR, a Radeon 7500 (With Catalyst drivers), and windows 2000. Personally, it runs great! I hardly have any problems with it, even with beta plugins such as the blurstudios and brazil plugins. I'm not saying that maya is worse, or better. Whatever you learn and grow up on, its obviously going to be the easiet for you. I grew up on MAX (started when I was 13 I think...well, however old I was in 7th grade) and since then I've gotten much better at it, but I'm still no expert or anything. I learned all of its quirks and stuff from using it so much that I don't get those stupid errors (The ONLY error I ever deal with anymore is that I can't use a lens effects glow with a background pic, but I've just learned not to do that anymore). Now, I'm sure if I tried using Maya or any of these other programs, I could probobly sound the same way all you non-MAX users sound.

Oh, and btw, I am going to diss one thing...MAC! NOTHING'S FREAKING WRITTEN FOR IT! maybe OS X will have a better chance now that its unix...but for now, I'll stick with windows until max ports to linux...then maybe I'll go to linux.....

Basically, don't knock it till ya tried it...and by tried, i dont mean, ::click:: install ::click:: open max ::click:: why isn't the image perfect!?!?!....Get over it, it takes time to learn!
