    THAT SIMPLE?

    the program will run the same-ish? or what might noticeably happen?
    longer render or no fast previews?

    here’s a question for you…

    you must lose all but two 3rd party plugins… if you don’t millions of small furry animals will perish needlessly…
    which two do you keep?

    in case you want to see furry animals in distress…
    your budget has been hammered by piss poor management that bet you stations future and real estate advertising…

    which two?
