I always loved that code name. I remember being disappointed when they revealed the real name
at the Montreal launch event. I thought: “XSI???” sounds like ex-SI, even though they explained that it was meant to suggest EXTREME SI. Anyway, love the flashbacks, and I appreciate the thought you put into these and how dedicated you are to always posting them. Not sure you ever missed one! Here’s to a fantastic 2014 for you, Stephen!
Yes I always loved that code name also. I even named a puppy that just came into my life Sumatra. And I thought about the same of XSI. Thank you for the memories Stephen!

I surely hope this was just a mock up.As a serious (near) finalized design there seems to be quite a bit wrong with it,,,
it’s the sumatra beta 2 splash screen and that was the look of things back then.
If that was “the look of things back then”, I;m glad I wasn’t alive then.yet.. :p
(Softimage DS also had a similar look, and those are the DS icons at the bottom)
