That is really "nothing" if you are earning a living with it. Many hobby-business users could afford $500. A full paid-up commercial license for SOLIDWORKS is $4000 initially then $1,300 per year after that. But they have deals for startups and students (and EAA members). But $1,300 is a trivially small price for a company that is already paying the engineer to come to work every day and for the company overhead and for his computer. $1,300 is very affordable if you are Boing, GM, or Tesla. As you are paying the employee/user literally 100 times more. -- Chris Albertson Redondo Beach, California _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
