The history of 3D Studio Max

3D Studio Max is a piece of software which I have personally started using in late 1999 and now, almost 10 years after, still remains my preferred animation/modelling content creation tool. The version I started out on was version 3 (we are now on version 2009 which is effectively version 11...).

However, there were some DOS versions of 3D Studio Max before that and I was very intrigued to find this very recently uploaded and updated Wikipedia page detailing the very turbulent history (owned by Kinetix, then Discreet and today Autodesk) of the application from its conception in 1990 onwards. Essential trivia reading for all 3D Studio Max afficionados out there!
