Don't jump to the silly conclusions that you get nothing on Tuesday, if you get nothing then you can start complaining and all the usual crap. But assuming in advance is plain stupidity.

Assuming in advance is statistical analysis.

oyh yeah... assuming the contrary is hoping in miracle ( sometimes also miracles happen).....

[Maximus3D]

Usually yes, but not in this case. Now it's plain sillyness to assume it's a failure before you have it in your hands.

Giacob's right - stranger things have happened. You never know.

[giacob]

anyway maximus who care anymore about this maxwell thing.... by long it sort of a lottery... looks like un ungoverned ship in the middle of a storm...no trust .. no hope founded on something serious.... just expecting the miracle.....by now i am more asthonishde and buffled the angry... just the strenous defensor of maxwell behaviour sometimes make me angry a bit for a while...

Hey guys - went to bed and didn't read the posts until now.

Did some of you guys actually compare a ferrari to a $495 renderer?

Once again I'll stress the "Be reasonable" aspect of my past posting.

Well, I would it call plain stupidity to believe in that date, because the last dates didn't hold much water. NL got the saying "Underpromise, overdeliver" somehow messed up.

If we're wrong this time, that's fine. If we're right, our lowered expectations reduce the pain at least.

I really hope it does for you Mac guys. You've been the red head step child of NL for too long.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but all they missed where the useless RC1..4 releases, isn't it? You could call that a blessing.

Very true, maybe windows users are the Red Headed step children.

The complete silence the Mac users have been thru is amazing. NL should take a moment and address their concerns, along with everyone elses for that matter.

And NO, this doesn't take away from their development. For damn sake, don't they have a secretary that could take down a short response.

They have. She is a heavy breathing girl, never seen without a mask and listening to the name Mike.

hmmmm sounds pretty nasty...Would you care to expand on that?

[vansan]

... still no undo button ...
Maybe "Save current scene state" and "revert to previous state" is a function, reserved for "Maxwell Pro" version?

Mverta: I just saw the 'masterclass' post. Is it permissable for you to kick RC5 things off with a basic getting started type of guide, including explanatory screen shots, in your 'masterclass' before RC5 is released

Actually, i am interested in a Linux version, i am in the process of converting from Mac to Linuc, but i am stuck in a windows limbo. Which is irritating. So is a linux version due soon?

It's possible... I've asked for clearance to do this.
