Autodesk have had over 20,000 responses to a recently-launched
survey aimed at gauging user interest in an OS X version of
AutoCAD.
The survey asks users a series of questions related to their use
of Autodesk software, their use of Macs in the workplace, and their
level of interest in an OS X version of AutoCAD. The survey also
asks several questions about whether such features as command line
interface and 3D modelling/editing are considered critical to a
"first" version of AutoCAD for OS X, and specifically whether a
product along the lines of Autodesk's more limited AutoCAD LT
rather than a full version of AutoCAD would be sufficient for Mac
users.
Although nothing is set in stone yet this will come as good news
to the many people who are already running AutoCAD on their Macs
through Boot Camp or virtualisation software such as VMWare or
Parallels.
Anyone wanting to fill out the survey can find it here.
