Ditto.

I use Rhino on my wintel station for designing the furniture I build.  It's
nice to build stuff in a virtual world before spending money on wood, then
figuring out you messed up in the design somewhere.

However, I'd be more than happy to use Maya on the Octane I *WILL* buy
(bloody pulp or no) to do it.  Besides, if its for my own enjoyment, I don't
really care what format it saves in and if there's an invisible watermark...
