huh. i didn't get the impression that Laurie necessarily wants any version of Genesis to work in Poser in order to come back, or truth told, to START using Poser again... i just hear her saying that, currently, the things she's looking for in a program she finds in using DS. and if Poser could innovate and give her something that DS can't, she'd pick up Poser again when wanting to use THOSE things. doesn't sound like she's beholdened to any specific program outside of using the tool needed at the time... [shrug]

i just don't get this whole black & white/us vs. them thing between users regarding which proggie they use. it's honestly not clear to me [never has been] why it matters what is used as long as you're able to get the results desired for your own personal needs...

i've only ever used Poser, btw... don't know if i'd ever try DS, either... and i would like to see some innovation for Poser. of course, innovation that's 'right for me', but even if it's not what i might be looking for, that's ok, too... i still have older versions of Poser, if it comes to that, that can get me somewhere...
