Count me in with the early EI crowd. Paid $6700 for a license transfer of version 1.5.1, then upgraded to 2.x and got the "free" iMac thrown in. Stopped sending them $$ at version 4, which just last year I had to open again on an old G5. Amazing thing was that for all it's clunkiness and limited features, it still rendered fast and looked good-- even on my circa 2004 PowerMac G5.

These days my 3D is mostly a combination of clever Zaxwerks modeling and C4D.

If at first you don't succeed, then try shortstop.
