Autodesk release Mac software suite.




Well.... I only have one word to say. FINALLY. They are slow, but for the first time in a few years Autodesk actually did something meaningful for the entertainment software world. Releasing these package (especially mudbox) for Mac, helps competition and will also destabilize windows as being the only option for small (nontechnical) studios. They've also made it easier for Linux based studios to integrate desktop software in their pipeline since OSX treats paths in a Unix way, so the path converting issue can be thrown out the window. So yeah. For the first time in a long time, good move Autodesk. Now do the same thing for Linux and all will be well.
