Re: Free CAD Program for Students???

You can get Solidworks for free as well, but if your computer can't handle Inventor it's not going to run Solidworks much better.

What are the specs on your computer? 6 or so years ago I was able to run Inventor 8 without much trouble on an 800 mhz P3 with 128 mb of RAM and integrated graphics without too much trouble (until I got into large assemblies).

Most relatively new computers should be able to handle light duty CAD work using Solidworks or Inventor.
