Yes, it is commercial.  And it is VERY expensive.  I believe that AutoDesk
has two versions of this program.  3D Animator is the cheap version (around
$700 ? ) and there is a MUCH more expensive version that is about $4,000 I
think.  I visited with an AutoDesk rep at a local computer show last fall,
where he was demonstrating both programs.  I was so impressed I bought
AutoDesk (I got a better deal than $700 though).

BTW, both progs require a coprocessor and 386/486 before you can even
install them.
