No and no. What a shame. An easy to use 2-D CAD program for the Mac is
all I want in my stocking this year. Well, and a good rivet bucking
partner.


Eh? No Mac version? What is:

Well, it isn't DeltaCAD, which I thought was our topic. And I'm not sure
that it qualifies as easy to use, but I'd welcome feedback on that score.

What are you building Smitty Two? If your close by I'll help you with some
rivets.

Thanks, Patrick. I sent you an email; let me know if it gets lost in the
ether.

It is harder to use than DeltaCad, but not by much, and it has more
options. Rather than the 10 minutes it takes to figure out DeltaCad
plan on taking an hour or 2 with TurboCad. I have AutoCad, Solid
Works, BobCad, and a few others but I use the TurboCad for 90% of my
drawings. I find it quicker than most to use. The only prolem I've
come up with is that I can't find any drivers that will print correctly
to my old HP plotter using WinXP. Win98 works just fine!?. Encad
drivers also work OK for that plotter with either OS.

XP can run a 98 emulator, I believe.
