o man if you could past that it would be amazing. I have been using the surface extrusionsons a lot more lately, and they are somewhat useful. I think that if thats what their improving it'll be interesting to see what more you can do with them. And aye, I'll probably get it when may 7th rolls arond.

For me anyway, for anything I do in 10, I can do it just as well and just as easily in 5. While I am aware of new features, I don't really have much use for them.

How about threads without Excel? As far as I know, Inventor 10 is the first version to allow that. (I found that out the hard way--my laptop has a different program for spreadsheets and Inventor doesn't use it. I couldn't do threads at all.)

here is an obvious change that was put on the little info card with 10 this year, the software is changing to DVD format instead of the normal CD format. I think the program will get a lot bigger and take up more space. Which is bad news if it happens as i run off a PIII and have only like 40 gigs of memory. My comp is SLOW when i run Inventor 10, so the new one, whether 11 or 12, will make it so i can only use Inventor or the rest of my computer at one time.
