Group, Just out of curiosity, I thought I would ask for a copy of the EULA from LinuxCad... It is company policy that software licences be reviewed here before purchase in order to avoid "gotchas". Well, I received this response from LinuxCad:

Ordering anything from him would obviously be a big GOTCHA. I did notice that all the "testimonials" on the website appear to have been fabricated, either that or everyone that wrote in uses his same broken English style. A sad deal...Gimme Gimme Gimme...Mine Mine Mine -Frank At 09:46 AM 7/25/2002 +1000, you wrote: > > > > BTW, I recently saw LinuxCAD's website.
