Here's the answer to everything you could want to know
abouot it before purchasing it: http://www.hash.com

I paid $199 for it.  Since I'm a student (and will be
forever it looks like) I got the student price from
http://www.creationengine.com.  It's the sameproduct
either way.  It's a bit of a tempermental program and
crashes frequently enough- even on a cleanly built
system with that being the first and only app installed
for awhile...  But since for "Ballet pour ma fille" I'm
finished product oriented more than process oriented
(meaning the final animation takes precedence over the
fun of programming my own utils, et. al.) AM should
work nicely.  I've found the way AM models to be a
learning experience all its own that forces me to
sketch my characters out on paper totally before I even
lay finger to mouse button.

hehe- I STILL use Moray for DOS- in fact when I won the
IRTC animation round all I wanted was v2.5 DOS not the
latest greatest version which I could have claimed...
:o)

Well, when I come back to messing around with Moray
I'll most likely go full windows version, etc., and
then see what happens from there.

Why bother?  I'm not interesting.
But... maybe "Ballet pour ma fille" will be.
