The way I look at it, the future of this app is bleak, as the other gentleman here wrote.

Yeah I don't agree with that post either. Try using MAX or MAYA. The workflow difference will be immediately apparent. Maya for instance is limited by what it can do out of the box. I mean it can do pretty much anything, but you need to either script it with mel script or manipulate its odd workflow to get the task done. MAX has a lot of functionality but its crammed in one of the worst GUI's imaginable, not to mention most of the functionality is actually some plugin that is poorly intergrated and buggy.
I appreciate the power of the other "professional-grade" software, but I see XSI as having the most clean cut workflow and abilities. And its hardly on its way out, its rising in popularity. If any of the applications is on its way out I'd point at Lightwave.
