I'm a disciple of the "horses for courses" approach. I've never really got
into ArcView, but I am a big fan of Maptitude (http://www.caliper.com/) as
my alternative system. Quite often I find I can do things in Maptitude
that I can't do in MapInfo, and I use it a lot for data exchange with other
systems. By coincidence I'm using it right now to import some elevation
data which I can then convert to MIF for subsequent export to MapInfo.
Cheap and cheerful, and I use it a lot. I think you'll search forever for
a GIS which will fulfil all your requirements.
