Need CAD for your contest entry?
I just received TurboCAD v9.2 from Overstock.com and loaded it onto my shop computer. It works great and is a lot farther up the "food chain" than the freebie, TurboCAD LE. It will load and save AutoCAD 2000 files and apparently does pretty good 3D as well. Don't ask me how though, I don't do do 3D yet. Can't beat the price: $19.95 + $1.40 shipping (slow boat shipping, took a week.)

There's three different versions of TC. The thirty-fourty dollar version without manual based on a prior version of the Deluxe. Then the eighty-ninety dollar Deluxe version that comes with a VERY nice manual. Then the Pro. At twenty bucks, any of them are winners!

That's the Deluxe version, too! I wonder if the manual comes in the box? Anyway, I spent the $$$ and bought v10 deluxe about six months ago. Worth it? Heck YEAH!

Patrick it does come with a big ol' thick manual. It's really a bargain. Man I love bargains!
Now if someone could just hold my hand and get me over the 3D hump I'd be a happy camper.
I've been tearing my shop apart looking for the Adobe Photoshop Elements CD that came bundled with my digicam to install on my new (to me) shop computer and haven't been able to find it. I looked on Software Blowouts and they have a later version than mine for $19.95! Usually Adobe don't sell nuthin' cheap.
