I have been somewhat folowoing this thread and in my opinoin none of these cad
programs really are very close to autocad, one could even go as far to say that they
cant even be mistaken as autocad clones. i think the definut most productive thing
about autocad is its COMMAND LINE, which is the VERY first thing i look for in a cad
program. just because it will export to a dxf/dwg or it can draw strait lines and
circles does not make it an autocad clone.
