I have recently been thinking about upgrading to Carrara Pro. As a matter of fact the only reason why I didn't last week was when I went online to buy, the upgrade no longer included the T-shirt and book offer. I'm glad now that I waited. I still have Carrara 3 and I wish there were better resources available to learn it (1 book).

Carrara Pro Cost $579, about $189 if you upgrade which I am entitled too. I picked up the recent 3d-World magazine and found out that SoftImage/SXI has been reduced from $1995 to $495 and that includes about $300 worth of training DVD's and learning material (limited time promotion offer). That brings the cost of the professional movie studio grade 3d software at the same cost of the Carrara upgrade. Ummm, let me think about this...
