implying anyone who can afford CAD cant afford Microsoft Windows

>Certain software is compatible with an OS
You know, Adobe Photoshop can run on Windows XP. That must make Windows XP and valid and valuable workplace OS that every developer should be using!
>>54869961
>implying windows xp isnt still a valid workplace OS in some places still
>>54869995
Valid? Certainly.
Valid in the world of high-perf visual design and/or 3D Modeling? Fuck no.

with Linux you can use your resources
to drive a nail into the wall.
on Windows you need all of your resources to lift a hammer which has a loose head.

I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called “Linux”, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU project.
There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called “Linux” distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

professional CAD on Linux is available since 20 something years...
Why is this news? Linux has amazing software for smart people. Great CAD software has been on linux for decades.

Is it still possible to find old copies of Siscad?
Qcad isn't my cup of tea for my T42, I dislike it's menus
>>54872937
found this:

You can also try Dassault Draftsight:

>>54872937
On a T42 i would suggest to use DESI-III in Dosbox.
>>54872937
BRL-CAD, Open Cascade(and fork).
