New tools, new benchmarks, new technology
It almost feels to me like an underground, guerrilla movement.
Everything it is, legacy CAD isn't -- a CAD Spring.
Legacy CAD obcesses with sales, these new guys with ideas.
Reminds me of AEC Systems 1986, where Computervision and intergraph had the important-looking booths, but Autodesk had the crowded one.
I meant the gorilla to represent the big CAD companies, but guerrilla works too.
I still think legacy CAD has far too much functionality to lose sales right now. But I do bet we will start seeing some fast following and aquisitions next year.
You're right: none of these are the next AutoCAD.
Some will stagnate as the programmer switches to other interests, some may even be acquired.
