I would vote for limiting the size of the CAD file yet retain all
the features. It would be perfect for proofing my setup/
compatibility and/or learning on a tight budget. Then when I decide
it works for me I could buy the next larger capacity file size,
incrementally priced over what I already purchased, and so on in
several more levels. Along with that incremental increase would
come an incremental increase in support/documentation. Charles
