they think all the MDT users are going to switch to IV they better rethink
their position." How true. What is never considered is that some people use
Mechanical Desktop because Inventor is not up to speed in some areas. For
example, we often receive horrific IGES files from our customers generated
from Catia V4. These files would require days of rework to close them into a
solid, so we work with what we are given. Mechanical Desktop does not require
these files to be perfect. Try importing these surface files into Inventor and
see how far you get. I think Autodesk should market Mechanical Desktop as a
stand alone legacy CAD package, and price it in the 1K range. Don't put
another minute into developing it, and don't charge annual maintenance.
