Hi Mark, no problem!
quote:
As for Rhino vs. MoI; they are similar and Rhino is so much superior to systems like AutoCAD that there is no comparison. But MoI is just so much nicer to use than Rhino that...well, I just love it. Even though one might say "If you've got Rhino, how can you justify getting MoI?" Again, ease of use and perception make all the difference.

Well, Rhino was my 2nd generation CAD program that I designed.

MoI is my 3rd generation CAD program.

So of course I like to think I have learned over time! :) With the experience of being able to look back, there were a lot of design flaws that I had inadvertently stuck in Rhino which I've been able to correct with MoI.

That's sort of why you get that nicer feeling working with MoI, I was able to "start over from scratch" and fix all kinds of underlying issues.

I originally designed Rhino to run on a Pentium 90 (that's 90 Megahertz!) system with only a wireframe working display. There are still a lot of holdovers in it from that time.

Hi Pilou,

> What was the first generation CAD? ;)

First generation was a simple mesh based modeling program called Sculptura.


> And the 4 nd will...? :)

Not sure if I would ever have enough energy to start all over again... ;)
