Farewell to AutoCAD...
After more than 20 years, Autodesk has opted to not renew our
AutoCAD reseller contract. We will stop selling AutoCAD as of
February 1, 2006.
What does this mean to our AutoCAD customers?
What does this mean to us?
- Since our Rhino related business has grown to be more
than ten times larger than our AutoCAD related business, the AutoCAD
business will be missed but not uncomfortable.
- While we are disappointed, we are also grateful for the
opportunity that Autodesk has provided us over the past 20 years. It
has been a profitable and exceptionally educational experience.
- Of course, most of the credit for our success goes to you. We are
very grateful for the opportunities you have given us to be involved
in your work and adventures. Thank you!
- We will now focus all of our resources on our worldwide Rhino-related
business. This includes:
- Supporting the 150,000+ Rhino users,
the 3,000+ Rhino developers, and the 750+ Rhino resellers.
- Developing the next versions of
Rhino,
Flamingo,
Penguin, and
Bongo.
- Developing new Rhino-related products including Toucan and
Brazil for Rhino.
- We are looking forward to working with
you on many challenging design, engineering, fabrication, and
manufacturing projects using Rhino's advanced technology.
What should you do now?
- If you are in the Seattle area, order any AutoCAD or AutoCAD upgrades you need from us before
January 25, 2006. We still have great prices and support is included
for one year.
- Consider purchasing Rhino ($895).
- Visit the new McNeel web site.
