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!>
