Hello all:
After reading the posts on this thread, I have to chime in just a tad bit.
I used to use MS without even thinking about PS. And yes, DETAIL.LSP is a great program in that environment. I've used it zillions of times and it is good at what it does.
THEN I discovered PS. With many, many thanks to T-bear and others, I graduated to PS and it's absolutely wonderful. OK, you change the drawing in MS and it's - well - just done automatically in PS.
XREFs are a different issue. I like to bind them when the project is done if at all possible.
Big files? Yea, but nowadays it's not a big problem. Use SuperPurge or something like it and with these 250GB drives and the servers available now, you'll be OK.
Now if they can just figure out how to email really big files...
And you ain't (sic) seen nuthin' yet
