Question what are the new features?
Does anyone know what are the new features for AutoCAD 2002?

I've been using AutoCAD 2000 for a while now, and I remember there were quite some new features that set it apart from AutoCAD R14... For example, 3D Orbit is extremely useful, and some of the interface was changed...

But how can they possibly improve AutoCAD at this level? Some how I think it can only grow so much that it won't be able to go to the next level unless there are some major changes in its core... But then we have Pro E and Uni-graphic for that already...

I wonder, what is the next step for designing software? I imagine Virtual Reality will become a big part... I've already seen people using those 3D glasses and gloves with some designing already... I wonder if that will become a normal household product in the future? Well, AutoCAD isn't really a normal household product, but a lot of students can have AutoCAD in their computer if they choose to buy it...
