Um, wrong Personally speaking I've been a freelance 3D illustrator for 12 years and never once used a PC for commercial work. Some of my clients are the biggest you could hope for. This is exactly the kind of woefully uniformed statement you should definitely ignore. max is not missed on the mac, we have plenty of other (better) alternatives and even if it was on the mac I wouldn't touch it. Max aside, Autodesk does have a strong presence on the mac with the most well known 3D apps, Maya and motion builder. ZBrush 3 will shortly be mac bound, its just taking too long for my liking, which is why I would buy 3D coat now if it was available.
