BUT, what you guys are not mentioning is that it MAY just work fine for their company.
I'm afraid that MANY of our drawing practices would not meet up with the typical CAD society. But, they work great for us.
What we do usually isn't really 'drafting'. Very seldom do we draw anything to scale. When I do have to, it's usually adding a door or wall to a floor plan from an outside firm. A lot of our work could really be done in a graphics package such as Corel, it would just take MUCH more time.
Most of our CAD users are Engineers that don't know much CAD and stumble thru to try meet our standards, and some still argue when they don't.
Up to a few years ago, EVERYTHING was still drawn in MSpace, with 'no reason to change it'. If I threw fields at them, they would REALLY bark.
But, all of this works fine for us.
