Re: SolidWorks vs. Inventor
In technology classes at school i learned inventor. A couple of years ago i started plugging around on my dad's solidworks license and have since found it to be far easier to use. Seeing how fast he can bring stuff from a sketch to a full scale analysis in COSMOS has really shown me how large a gap there is between the two. The interface in solidworks just feels more intuitive i guess. The design times i encountered in inventor seem to detract from the software's ultimate goal: rapid 3 dimensional modeling (maybe i'm just incompetent). I don't know if inventor has similar export capability, but my dad tells me solidworks easily exports to his CAM software with minimal modification. I even like solidworks dwg editor better than autocad. I guess I'm just not a big fan of Autodesk products in general.
