Thanks Don ...
TurboCAD has always looked pretty good to me but when I gave up AutoCad after more that 20 years I chose ProgeCAD as my alternate and it does do a pretty good job for me when I have to produce a .dwg file and now I can't see putting out the money for TurboCAD Pro. It is necessary to move on sometimes so I'll keep thinking about the best choice.
MoI is my present favorite for modeling. A great little program.
cheers,
