Will take again in the fall...meanwhile I have been using the on-line tutorials to keep sharp and get help when I'm stuck drawing something.
This is a high end 3d/drawing program unmatched as yet...I think!

Sorry to ramble but almost a year gone by...and you are the first one I know of that is not a salesman, student or teacher to comment about it. Does the program you use have the extras? Cosmos, libraries, etc?
no idea if they'd have extras.....they design wooden swing sets which (as they hate hearing me joke about) are, when you break it down to its core, just sticks o' wood with holes in 'em. 'course, they also use it to design slides, hardware, and other accessories.........but as to extras..doubt they do unless the company really thought it was necessary. We've got like 8 licenses for it I think. They'd used AutoCad for years and changed in '06....had to be a reason. As far as ease of use, I guess for what I've used it for so far, I'd agree....but then the last CAD program I used was an almost-DOS autocad....lol
