I tend to disagree here, in that I think with my suggested improvements to the Caligari
editor, that it would be the easiest to use and the nicest object editor yet available.

I have yet to see Journeyman or any of the "newest" rendering packages, but I *really*
like that 3D editor of Caligari's, and the fact that you can easily switch views and
see things (the whole time) pretty much like they will end up in the finished product.

With SA4D and Turbo you have to think more (tri-view) as to how the object will look.
