Worth every penny.
Woah...
I never thought there'd come a day that I'd say something positive about an Autodesk application but woah. I knew Maya 2008 was going to be faster than 7.0 because it runs in native mode on my IntelMac instead of interpreted mode. However, I expected it to be maybe 1.5 times as fast. Instead, I find it's about 15 times as fast. It's able to take advantage of my multiple CPUs and the video card. It totally screams in comparison to 7. Color me impressed.
