Help me break the mac cad strangle-hold, post here if you feel the windows centric (not) CAD marketplace (rant). Long live architosh, sketchup, vectorworks, archicad, artlantis & maxwell (stalwarts of osx)

won't happen the magic mouse is horrible with such apps. kills your hands. so of course apple will never allow it (G)
 
I use a Mac and agree. I use AutoCAD within Fusion which is ok, but I wish it was a mac native app. I don't like archicad, and none of the mac apps are really industry standards, vectorworks is used in some mac offices but not widely.
So i guess we're stuck with it until autodesk release more mac apps, which is a possibiilty in the future. https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/683023/
 
i just installed windows7 pro & autoCAD 2008. running via bootcamp and it seems to run flawless. i had some trouble getting the bluetooth devices to connect since i installed the 64-bit windows OS but no i am ready to go....i would suggest this method to anyone wanting to use autoCAD programs.
