Auto CAD vs Vector works?

I just got my demo copies of Auto CAD and Vector works. I know this is going to open a big can of worms but I was wondering if any of the members of this group have experience using both and would care to make a recommendation There is a very big price difference between the two and, while I'm a Mac guy I would not have much of a problem using a PC if Auto CAD turned out the be the proper program to use. My use would be mainly for mechanical design drawing, for some projects I'm beginning. I know that I will have to decide which program to use for myself, and having the demos to play with really helps, I'm just hoping that I could get some real life experience from some people here. TAI -- Jack Fisher Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ I use both. Vectorworks really shines when you are working with stage lighting. It is often used for Architecture as well but in ghe world of mechanical drawing, it is really not any better than Autocad. If you work in the entertainment industry, it has a lot of features that just cannot be replicated with Autocad. |
