My advice is to wait on getting Carrara Pro. It is way overpriced for todays marketplace. You may want to wait until either the price drops in half or SP1 or SP2 is released. There really isn't any incentive/value in getting c4pro now; you will pay the regular full overinflated price. There isn't any free T-shirt, book, or other included anything. Unless you like being a beta tester of course. Wait. Now is not the time to buy!
