Hi Jim I can let you have auto cad if you can drive it (beyound me ) --about 4 gb though :Sad: Can post it to you ?
not sure if it will work with vista ?
What is wrong with pad and pencil ?

I've got autocad somewhere ;but like you far too complicated , have got a digital note pad just the job for doing sketches plans etc and then saving then to the pc.

B a tad carefull offering Autocad on the forum. AFAIK, it's a licensed product so if you're gonna do it, a PM might be better.:thumb:
No trying to be sanctimonious or anything, but a company I once worked for had an unlicensed copy and were fined £10,000 by AutoCad.

Have you checked out SketchUp from Google? I use it for room design / extensions basic palnning, and with a 3d capability it's excellent for demo-ing soultions. It is really easy to use, and there is a community of users with predesigned templates you can easily download and incorporate / amend too.
