PO cuando era de Alias en un principio era exclusivo para sistemas UNIX e Irix de Sillicon Graphics, cuando MS adquirió el motor sacó la versión para NT de la cual se tuvo que volver adeshacer por las razones antes mencionadas.

Hay que aclarar que Maya es un descendiente del PO.

¿PO? ¿PA?

Softimage:
Softimage, Co. (pronounced soft-iMAHJ) is a subsidiary of Avid Technology, Inc. located in Montreal, Quebec, Canada that produces 3D animation, 2D cel animation, compositing, and special effects software. Their flagship product, Softimage|XSI, is used in the creation of computer animation for modern films, commercials, and video games.

Softimage was founded in 1986 by National Film Board of Canada filmmaker Daniel Langlois. The company was later bought by Microsoft in 1994, and subsequently bought by Avid Technology, Inc. in 1998.

Maya:
Maya is the culmination of three 3D software lines: Wavefront's The Advanced Visualizer (in California), Thomson Digital Image (TDI) Explore (in France) and Alias' Power Animator (in Canada). In 1993 Wavefront purchased TDI, and in 1995 Silicon Graphics Incorporated (SGI) purchased both Alias and Wavefront (due to pressure from Microsoft's purchase of Softimage earlier that year)

Alias
Alias Systems Corporation (formerly Alias|Wavefront), headquartered in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, is a software company that produces high-end 3D graphics software. The company was formed in 1995 when Silicon Graphics bought Alias Research, which was founded in 1983, and Wavefront Technologies, founded in 1984, then merged the two companies. It is now owned by Autodesk, the producers of 3D Max
