Re:Vector CadCam

Welcome to CCED, Bill!

You've picked an excellent time to ask about Vector. Fred Smith, the
distributor of Vector (and owner of IMService) has a special deal
going on for us list members. For less than the price of a decent
meal out, you can have a FUNCTIONING version with FULL CAD
capability, and some "as yet" unspecified CAM additions... (To have
the COMPLETE CAM part will cost more, but this is a GREAT way to find
the answers you seek, IMO!

Hope this helps.
