IMSI Design develops and markets DoubleCAD and TurboCAD.
DoubleCAD is marketed as a work alike replacement for AutoCAD LT and includes some extensions not in AutoCAD LT.
There is a DoubleCAD Pro for $695 and a DoubleCAD XT for free.
DoubleCAD XT Version 3 can be downloaded from http://doublecad.com/. Documentation can be downloaded also.
DoubleCAD seems to be providing the free XT version releases at the same time the Pro releases are provided. This means the free XT version is not an out of date Pro version.

I have some experience with AutoCAD and notice a bunch of stuff retained in AutoCAD, AutoCAD LT, and DoubleCAD from the first AutoCAD versions I used on Eagle 8086 and HP 80286 computers.

For 3D modeling, http://www.alibre.com/ markets Alibre design Expert for $1,399, Alibre Design Professional for $699, and Alibre Design Personal Edition for $99.
Each $99 personal edition license includes registration for installation on three computers. 

Today, Friday, Alibre Design claims they are in a booth at Boeing's Future of Flight annual Earth Day event. Alibre Design will be showing support at the WIKISPEED booth in Everett WA, so if you are in the Seattle area they say to come stop by and say hello! I copied this from Alibre but have no connection with the product expect to have spent $99 with them. I hope to install soon.

I have also used TurboCAD through Version 17 but without great delight. TurboCAD is a different philosophy from AutoCAD and DoubleCAD.

Alvin,

Would you please elaborate on the "different
philosophy" between the CAD programs?

Thanks,

Roger

Roger can I ask you to elaborate about your TurboCAD experience?
