Big up the the Open Source community. I work in an cool IT dept that lets you experiment a lot. It's amazing the how the open source mindset can drastically reshape your IT environment for the better.

Are there good 3D designers on open source? for example something alike to poser, maya, or 3d max?

From the GNU Manifesto...
"... I consider that the golden rule requires that if I like a program I must share it with other people who like it. Software sellers want to divide the users and conquer them, making each user agree not to share with others. I refuse to break solidarity with other users in this way. I cannot in good conscience sign a nondisclosure agreement or a software license agreement. For years I worked within the Artificial Intelligence Lab to resist such tendencies and other inhospitalities, but eventually they had gone too far: I could not remain in an institution where such things are done for me against my will.

So that I can continue to use computers without dishonor, I have decided to put together a sufficient body of free software so that I will be able to get along without any software that is not free. I have resigned from the AI lab to deny MIT any legal excuse to prevent me from giving GNU away. ..." - Richard Stallman

Was sent to me in an e-mail, and I quote, "You're most welcome. :-) I'm starting to become all open-source-y all of a sudden: It's a bit like like changing religion and discovering that it's OK to be human after all. lol"

A must read. Eric Raymond's "The Cathedral and the Bazaar"
