I don't want to make this a Max vs Maya flame thread.
I was surprised to find out that Autodesk acquired Alias.
Was this known by many people?

So, yes. Quite a surprise, especially since Alias already changed owners only about a year and a half ago.

Either this happened very fast (actually, on the other hand, the deal isn't done yet. It will take another couple of months before everything goes through from the way I understand it) or they really managed to keep this one under wraps. I had no idea whatsoever before I got the official email from autodesk the other day. So, yes. Quite a surprise, especially since Alias already changed owners only about a year and a half ago.
