Personally, I would classify most of the HOF as "high end" quality. It 
may be just me, but I've looked at a lot of images done with 3DS Max, 
Maya, Cinema4D, Lightwave, etc, and IMO the images in the HOF are of the 
same caliber. For example:

I'm not immortal and I've been known to be wrong (a lot of the time). 
And Chris, I don't mean to make a blanket generalization statement and 
say that it's absolutely true that the only reason we don't see POV used 
in CGI houses is because it's free - like I said, I'm open to other 
reasons. It's just my personal opinion that it plays a tremendous part. 
:) I apologize if this wasn't clear.
