Re: Inventor evolution, and finding a holdout

I have been using inventor since version 5. More specifically I have used 5,6,7,9,10,11 Every year while the software looks very similar to each other there are new features that pop up. In speaking with some of the autodesk guys the way it works is that current released have the infrastucture to add features. The software may look the same because it is the same for the most part.

I look at new software versions like cars. Every year car manufacturers come out with brand new modles, but in the end they all still have the basic features. Steering wheels, engine, seats, etc. They start from what they know and add features. When it comes down to it you can use whatever version of inventor you want but if you want a CD player and heated leather seats you are going to have to go with the new version.
