I've been waiting for Design to go on sale. I opted to get the
supported version with 1 yr. free updates for $398. I like it.

I like it too. Been using the Pro version
for about 3 years, for sheetmetal, 3d design
and 2d drafting. Has some twitches, but has
saved me a huge amount of time.

Too bad they choose to leave off any info on the page you linked to. A
link illustrating the process and results of the program or even a
link to their homepage would have been nice if they wanted to sell

Dayum! I paid 912 for it with a year of maintenance back in April right after I got back
from NAMES.

Version 12 should be out in a month or two.

Thanks! I've been wanting to upgrade to 3D CAD, and Alibre looked good,
but too pricey. For $99, it should be dynamite for my home shop use.

I downloaded it, and shortly afterwards, had a system meltdown. Trial
period is over and I never used it. May call up Alibre and see if I can get
another shot.

BTW, Design Xpress is free and not time-limited.
You can see if it would do enough for you.

They do try to hook you on Design Pro then cut
you back Design Xpress after 30 days.

Pete, can you talk to the guys at www.ChiefArchitect.com ($2,590) or
www.SoftPLAN.com ($2,985)for me? I'd love to find one of their
programs on sale for $398! I think they both do CAD, too.

TIA

I like it too. I got it a couple of years ago on a similar sale.
