Too bad Gobble never made it fer Linux. I've never quite understood
Gobble's reluctance. C'mon, their entire server system is Linux.


Does SketchUp not run on WINE? When there are more Linux users, there
will be more software ported to it. BTW, Google sold SU to another
company in recent years, I believe.

Anywho, I gave my ex lead designer an old precursor to Sketchup, to
try. It was like E (an old early modeling SGI program), but he didn't
like it --over AutoCad-- cuz it did not have a "stretch" function.
