Your welcome, as you can tell I am pretty excited about this product
(next best thing to R3 <G> !)
>> I hope they offer it as an upgrade to AME. It is usually much
easier for me to find someone where I work to pay for an upgrade than
a new product. <<
I am hoping also, as I have quite a few AME clients I am not looking forward to
telling there isn't one. The decision isn't final yet, so let's hope!
>> Often, it is easier to just buy the stuff myself… <<
I know, as I used to do it at the Architectural firm I worked for!
>> Do you happen to know how much Autodesk will charge to "take back" my
Windows ACAD and return my DOS version? <<
"Standard" platform change fee is $250.00. BUT, with the delay in availability
of the ACIS core on the windows platform, I would venture a guess that there
will be some "dealing" going on!
>> I'll call the local AutoCAD "dealer" fifteen or twenty times and leave
messages. <<
You might want to try Karen Anderson with Nolte Sheehan (71172,2517). I know
she is Mechanical Authorized (remember, this will NOT be available from all
dealers). Or, if you don't mind dealing long distance……… <BG!>
