| Haha, yeah, I started at EI 1.5.1, and it was 7500 bucks. Even back then the timeline felt behind the times... animating with a spreadsheet?
I made some pretty pictures with it, though, and it earned its keep.

You and I must have bought EI the same month. LOL. Sounds exactly like what we went through. We, too are on C4D these days.
Don't get me started - I bought EI 2.9.2 back in the day for $2500, 6 months later they dropped the price to $200 (or so) and when they wanted me to upgrade to v3.0 they had the nerve to ask for a $400 upgrade fee. Their marketing material were misleading in my option (they featured work by Paul Schbiteroff sp? - and there is no way I was getting that type of reflection or look out EI anytime soon) I switched to cinema 4d and vowed to never give another cent to EI. Of course I deserve some if not all of the blame for my purchase - I didn't try out the software (it was 1999 and downloading a whole program to try out was still a new idea) and I went against the advice of a friend who suggested C4D.
Sorry for the rant Timt
iPhone EIAS has just released v9.
