Ariel Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 My point is that dual development consumes resources that could go into making a stronger single platform implimentation...ADSK increased it's market share after going to a single platform. FYI, here's confirmation that Autocad for Mac OSX is on the way: link Quote Link to comment

Stan Rostas Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 Question, how come AutoCADD or Revit cost something north of $5,000 US and Vectorworks Architect with Renderworks only cost $2,000 US. One would think by being on only one platform AutoDESK could get some level of proficiency writing code for that one environment and the price would drop? In the above applications you get 90% of the functionality with the Vectorworks offering compared to the AutoDESK offerings yet they cost almost 250% more, quite baffling? Maybe its the folks at NNA are just so much smarter than the folks at AutoDESK as they can create an application that exists on two different OS platforms with the same functionality for 1/3 the cost. Pretty amazing really. Quote Link to comment
