files.

I have looked at it, but was unhappy that the web site is so
misleading about what the program can do, especially with respect to
saving files. I did not get the impression previously that even the
$495 version had the capability to save other than 2D files. I also
did not get the impression that it could handle Nurbs curves and
associated surfaces, animation and photorealistic rendering, let
alone Vrml capability.

Anybody done a comparison between all three, or know of one?

Can Origin handle draping of r2v across a surface, as was recently
discussed with Rhino? How about Truespace?
