My first version of Acad was 10 and I found it so easy to use in 2D and later versions in 3D solids that I never learnt to do it properly and I never wanted, until now, to do a compound curved surface. I bought the 2002 version (student) I am now using when I was doing a night class in CAD that I never finished. Anyway I'm stuck with it until finances pick up.

I converted my draftsman a number of years ago. We still have the dongle
for Acad2.5, but there were always problems in those days and after one
crash Paul was heard to say "Of cause this happened all the time with
the drawing board - you would be sitting working and suddenly all the
lines fall on the floor"

He is running ProE and Catia at the moment since neither can cope with
everything that his aerospace customer needs so he has to switch jobs
between them. So even today there is not a single solution to everything
:( - He STILL has to drop to Autocad to tidy up the 2D views and
dimensioning were a drawing has to go to paper!
