I want so much to get into 3d modeling and the such and to fully understand it, but just always been too busy, and too poor. Most attempts made with blender it sometimes starts to piss me off and I've always had issues with blender on my system with the ui acting up and not displaying properly, which makes the already very limited ui very much harder to learn.
wish i had the cash to blow on 3dsmax, maya, lightwave, etc.
Hmm, I should check my schools software to see their price... Afterall, I got CS3 premium design suite for just over 300 bucks the other year. (convinced my parents for a Christmas present to help out on it some)

hmm apparently we get a free version of maya ple, and 3dsmax or something, I'll have to check it out later.
