Apparently on the same day that Blender 2.8 (always seems to have been the poster child of what open source can accomplish and I think with 2.8, others are starting to take serious notice) came out, have news of 3DS and Maya India subscription options.

There is one thing though in the 1st sentence in the "note" section that seems "curious" to say the least.

Praise the lord for open source. I do very little 3d stuff but dabble a bit. A small sign shop can do a lot with blender and sketch up.

That you can and (for me) even more so given the expanded GP functionality.

Open source in general has come a long way, even in just the short 4 yrs I've been using it full time (9 if you count how long I've been dabbling with Linux (still a blip on the radar considering I started with MS back during the days of DOS 3.2-3.3 when I was a little kid)).

Not everything about it is all sunshine, but the pros far outweigh the cons (at least for me). Top it off, I've actually gone back to enjoying using the computer, it's not just a means to an end. But I digress.

I was one of the millions that died of dysentery in the 80s.

How about BASIC on a VIC-20? Or programming a TI-59 calculator....It goes back for years.
