Gavin Edmunds - well said!

Also, on the desire for an all-in-one solution that could combine a
number of drafting, graphic & interactivity applications.  I would
say that's not necessarily a good thing.

Working on paper allows for complete freeform but once you move in to
an app you're always going to be slightly constrained by the tool's
functionality.  Put it another way, every app adds its flavour to
your work.

Its why UI's created in code only look engineering centric.  Its not
because coders like engineering centric interfaces, working within
code produces a systemic centric layout.

So, I believe its very important to always have a number of tools
from different vendors in your toolset.  

Poor analogy time: a Chef who only uses a microwave will produce food
that tastes like it was cooked in a microwave
