Solidworks

[Greg Needel]

the only reason i would say a switch to solidworks would be good is because it is more commonly used in the working world...the engineering firm i worked at used a ton of different software but when coustmers wanted things 99% of the exporting was to solid works....solid works would be a better tool to prepaire for the real world.



i still love inventor but i use solidworks just as much now

I use solidworks all the time at college. Maybe because that is what I was tought on. I will agree that it is a great program that is simple to use for beginers and can be complicated if you need it to be

Not to mention the fact that Autodesk has an office within walking distance from FIRST HQ up in Manch-Vegas.

I think we would have heard something about it by now since the article is from February 2003. Autodesk and FIRST have such close ties that I dont think we will see a change this year. I guess we will just have to wait and see though.
