Hi Tom,

> But what about Rhino users ? What do they find in Moi what they dont in Rhino ?

One big area is MoI's n-gon meshing technology - I've heard from a lot of Rhino users who use MoI alongside of Rhino to get cleaner polygon mesh output.

There are also people who just enjoy MoI's alternative UI and fluid workflow - MoI has a very different UI structure than Rhino. For example you can model in MoI without ever touching the keyboard. Some Rhino users enjoy the speed and just general overall feeling of working in MoI for the initial drawing (things like the display, selection feedback, there are a lot of little things), and then bring their data into Rhino for more operations.

Rhino and MoI actually make a great combination together because it is really easy to share data back and forth - you can even use Copy and Paste to move objects between them.

Of course, there are also plenty of Rhino users who are happy using Rhino and aren't interested in MoI.
