LOVE my old Generic CADD, alas, cannot get it to run on the new
Dell. Don't like the Dell, can't print to the parallel port. Can't
use the parallel port.

I bought Visual CADD because it reads the Generic Cadd files and now
am forced to suffer with Visual Cadd.

The plus side is that it does print to pdf files.



Did you order a parallel port on the new Dell? Of course, if you got Vista
on it, well that is another whole matter. Vista doesn't seem to work with
much of anything more than a couple of years old plus everyone that I know
using it has a PC lockup at least once or twice a day and in some cases they
have to actually unplug the PC to get it to unlock. I think MS has another ME
system on their hands and didn't intend for the system to be retro active but
that people would need to purchase new hardware as well as software.

Just my two cents and off topic I know. Well maybe not totally since I
don't think I would try operating ANYTHING with Vista, especially a machine.
