Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO]Link emulator

Thanks guys for the info.
I already have AutoCad.
I am looking for a linkage simulator package. One of the prime ones is Working Model. I bought that program when they had a
special on it many many years ago for $295. Recently they wanted to charge me several thousand for an upgrade.... That is why
I am looking for reasonable alternatives.

Jon suggested Altaire software and they have recently dropped the price form $995 to $195 so I will give them a call tomorrow
about a real demo. I downloaded the demo on their site and it was terrible. It dumped a ton of files on my hard disk without
warning and then the step through demo did not work properly either but the program looks good (just a badly put together demo).

Ah, just remembered the name of the company, Saltire Software.
That and Alta Vista ought to connect you.
