[sci.electronics] GREAT DEAL on a Great CAD / Graphics / Graphic Text pkg

pete@octopus.UUCP (Pete Holzmann) (06/28/88)

This deal expires at the end of June, so if it is later than that, hit 'n'!

One of my wholesale suppliers is offering Drafix One Plus and/or Drafix
3D extensions for $145 (normally $295). I want it! The catch is that I
have to buy at least 3 to get in on the special pricing (ends June 30).
In order for me to get in on the deal, I'll pass it along at my cost
to anybody else who wants to get it too.

Just in case :-) you haven't heard of Drafix... it is a PC-based CAD
package with a lot of very nice features:

	- extremely easy to use
	- comes with around 30 fonts, and you can edit text without
		retyping the whole sequence, unlike AutoCAD, etc. Useful
		as a simple newsletter generator
	- comes with 450 general purpose predefined symbols (Architectural,
		Mechanical, Electrical/Electronic)
	- can buy in-depth symbol sets containing 800-1500 symbols each in
		each of the 3 areas mentioned above. If you want this, I'll
		pass it along at my cost too ($80-90, I think).
	- In depth ratings by Software Digest put it right up there with
		the $3000 big packages in all areas other than programmability.
		This is NOT a CAD-programming language for use with a zillion
		add-ins (that's the thing that AutoCAD has over this pkg).
	- very fast. Even without a math coprocessor.

I intend to use it for doing drawings around my house: landscaping, room
	arrangements, woodworking, etc etc. I don't do much electronic
	design or I'd use it for that.

Anyway, if you are interested, please contact me *quickly*. I realize there
isn't much time.

Pete
