"Beside that: Why are the user of the free highend app blender so pi**ed, when somebody mentions a good - and also free and opensource - competitor?<nobr> <wbr></nobr>;)"

I think posters are just requesting that the reviewer not post blatantly false statements. In most aspects AOI is far behind Blender (any sort of simulation tool; uv mapping; modeling - (sculpt, nurbs, metaball, poly modeling - AOIs are fairly rudamentary still); animation tools - rigging, skinning, constraints, deformers, drivers, morph targets - AOI has mostly extremely limited versions of these or lacks them entirely ; modifiers; particle tools). AOI tends to have only the very basics of the features it lists, and is lacking pretty much all of the high end tools.

The '51 vs 19' checks on the chart is one example - ie he claimed they were 'close' when that is obviously not the case.

If the author doesn't wish to get called on the false statements, he can just post true statements about AOI.
