I guess the question is do you actually own a LT version
yes
or a 3rd party app running with it
no
and do you really know the difference?
Yes, I know the difference between LT and a 3rd part app
If you don't you are assuming that if you spend more money then you are more productive!
Has nothing to do with spending money, but I can guarantee that I am more productive with the full version
Ask the guys running Mech-Q on LT if they are more productive than running with
the full version of Acad.
But are they as productive or more productive than someone using a similar vertical in ACAD?
And with the theme on framing I have seen a framing schedule and cutting list created on LT
with a bom in a blink! Do that in ACAD.
I saw something that did that back around '92. I don't doubt that there are very similar things in abundance out there but am not sure, it's not something that I ever need to do. Unless you're trying to say that LT with verticals can do things that ACAD with customization/verticals can't, your examples are as fallacious as Mark's buying a hammer vs. starting a business example.
Let me be perfectly clear here, if my understanding is incorrect, and the use of products like this doesn't violate the EULA, I have absolutely no problem with it at all. If on the other hand it does violate the EULA, I do have a problem with it.
