Autodesks AutoCAD LT 2002 streamlines technical illustrating with an Internet portal approach that combines product support and workgroup collaboration, while boosting drafting team productivity with aids to dimensioning and with much-needed extensions to its tools for working with text.
COST ANALYSIS
Many drafting applications will fit within the 2-D limits of AutoCAD LT 2002, and many users wont be troubled by its omission of AutoCADs programmable customization options—and for only a little more than one-fifth the price of the companys top-of-the-line (and otherwise compatible) product. The comparably priced DataCAD 10, from DataCAD LLC, is an attractive alternative for those with architectural rather than general CAD requirements.
(+) Integrates Internet facilities with local program functions.
(-) Implicitly threatens CAD tool buyers with other products possible lack of compatibility with DWG file format.
