I missed this article on the AutoCad blog back on April 1st when it first appeared, but I have always been fascinated by AutoCad.
I even interviewed with a major architect firm back when they were replacing their Macs with PCs because AutoDesk was dropping support for Mac. At least through version 13.x, AutoDesk did support the Mac. When I lived in Virginia I heard from someone there that they would use the Mac version to print overnight because the PC version didn’t provide them with the ability to set up multiple prints.
This particular article was posted after a winter article about how it was possible to run AutoCad using BootCamp, VMWare’s Fusion or Parallels.
The April 1st article asked for people to respond about whether they wanted to run AudoCad on a Mac. They got over 20,000 responses.
So maybe it will soon run native in the Mac OS.
See the winter article here.
