Once, I was detailing a drawing in Autocad, and I downloaded a bearing

I imported the bearing file into my other drawing, and the bearing
was bigger than my whole assembly!

Autocad is bloatware. :-))

Hear hear, use Catia instead :-)

Eek, the lady on the demo page has one of those whiny,
irritating-to-the-core voices.

Question: Why do they have a shopping basket on their site when there
is no way to buy their products online? What does Catia cost, anyway?
Just curious.


It's one of those "if you need to ask the price, you can't afford it
propositions".

Part of our business (about 300 souls) got sold off to a management buyout.
Because Dassault wouldn't allow 6 licenses to be transferred, a deal was done
whereby the draftsmen still work for us. They are paid for entirely by the
sold off business and only do work for them... go figure.
