Not too serious, just when I boot up I have to push F1 to get going, so loose about 10 seconds. Lock ups have gone away since new or larger fan fitted.
Keep well to you both down there. John
Echidna, what do you find hard about SU? It is easier than AutoCad IMHO.
I suppose the times I've sat down with I wasn't in the right frame of mind to concentrate and got peed off too quick.
Set small goals. Do the tutorials. Let things you have learnt soak in, and then walk away for the day. Chip away at it. I almost think it is better than ACad.
I have been using PYTHA for about 3 years now and have found it to be really good for what we need at work ( making office furniture ). Because of the licence we have it is limited in some parts that althou are not really needed, would make a really cool addition to some of the custom furniture the we produce.
Can anyone post some example drawings (jpeg) from both PYTHA and Autocad? I would be interested in seeing how SU compares with them.
There are some online Autocad tutorials here.

The support for Pytha is virtually non existent (unless you read and write fluent German) and the manuals might as well be non existent also for how badly they're written.
