There's a free training version of Maya (Maya 5 Personal Learning
Edition) that has all the capabilities of the full package except that
all the images and the working environment are stamped with a "not for
commercial use" watermark. I think it needs a fairly beefy computer to
run on, and won't run on old operating systems - needs Windows XP pro,
Windows 2000 pro or Mac OS X. You can download it for free (137MB) or
pay $19.99 to get it on CD together with a tutorial DVD.
