Re: CAD for older computers

Why not just find some older versions of CAD software that will run on those machines. CAD is one of those things that learning the fundamentals even on old software will be better than nothing. Google sketchup, while it has it's interesting features is NOT an engineering CAD software with very few features that will translate over to a real system. I would rather run Inventor Version 5 than sketchup.


You might also want to check pro-e student edition, they did some things to lighten the software so it is capable of running on things other than $1000 work stations.
