Thanks for the answer,
zachjo. The way Autodesk operates you're right that not rushing to install the latest version is probably right. I don't need to upload the student version, as I own the license to AutoCAD, and if you have to ask how much $$$, you really don't want to know
. Let's just say that the subscription upgrade is only a
little cheaper than jumping several years of upgrades.
Speaking of which, I have to correct myself: I have ADT2007 and ACA2009, not 2008. Either way I have an odd numbered year to deal with. I may wait for 2009 to shake out and then install it. Then I'll have (counts on fingers) another five years for the next upgrade.
If the Architectural series lasts, of course. My dealer was trying to get me to go to Revit. "Even better!" "Everyone uses it!" are his claims. But Revit is not AutoCAD, and I'm sure the engineers I work with do not want to try to convert from that.
Anybody with an opinion on Revit?
