Grant, You don't want to go back to the windows app, or you don't want to go back to running Windows as a platform? I'm using a few old windows apps where there is no good OS alternative within a vmware/Win XP setup. This works fine for me for the maybe 60 minutes a week I need to use these things. I looked for the same sort of floor planning software a few years ago. I found nothing at that time. Good luck, Mark
