Thanks for all the replies.
I am NOT going to install DS. No hard feelings other than it just don't want to run properly on my computer, while Poser (10, I guess it is) does just fine.
Good to see you back in The Fray! 
You don't NEED to install Studio to use Genesis 1 and 2; DAZ has a free DSON Importer that allows them to be loaded into Poser. Products that are directly loadable come with Poser Companion Files (CF's) and they show up in the Poser library. Many do not include them, but can be added using D3D's DSON Loader script (this requires the DAZ DSON Importer to be installed.) Some brought in the latter way work well, others do not. You often have to adjust materials, and sometimes normals are backwards; Studio must not be as picky about them as Poser.
Joe Public has a post on converting an imported Genesis figure into a native Poser figure; I ignored the "speed" part and it still works well, but I have lots of memory. The same procedure works on Genesis 2 as well...
