RE: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] New Member in need of advice and directions

Tom,

You are asking at a great time. Fred Smith from IMService is running an
extra special just for us list members. He is offering Vector CAD for about
the price of shipping. Deal is good through July 4.

Here is what Fred just posted about the CAD only special version of Vector:

Vector is quite different from Autocad and it's clones. Uses more of a point
and click and keeps track of the direction you create or select entities to
act more intelligent. Would definitely suggest you pick it up and give it a
go for the tiny amount it costs.
