“Cimmetry’s Server/Client version of AutoVue allows any client — including Mac OS X — to view a wide range of native CAD file formats on the Macintosh, even Autocad,” Architosh reports.
“Their Server/Client version of AutoVue uses Java — that software technology Microsoft loves to hate — to enable platform-agnostic deployment of AutoVue. AutoVue Server/Client Edition requires a company to install and run a server version of the software on either Microsoft’s Windows NT4, 2000, XP or 2003 Server, or Sun Solaris 8 or 9. Once installed, clients running a myriad of operating systems, including Mac OS, and Mac OS X with a Java Virtual Machine can utilize AutoVue,” Architosh reports.

God it was awlful OS, the type you could barely read, it was so cheap looking.
No wonder PC users want to but Mac OS X on their computers so bad.
Windows suck, big time.

Is there any viewers similar to this that allow Visio files to be viewed on the Mac? That is what I need.
There’s a package called ConceptDraw (http://www.conceptdraw.com) that can handle Visio files on the Mac. Pretty sweet…
OmniGraffle Pro imports & exports visio files – fantastic app (http://www.omnigroup.com/applications/omnigraffle/)
what exactly is the hold-up in getting Autocad on OS X??
autodesk is the microsoft of the CAD world.

You nailed it! Fortunately for me I don’t have to use AutoCAD at my place on employ- we use Unigraphics (MUCH, MUCH better than anything Autodesk puts out). But unfortunately for me, I have to use a Winblows piece of shittake. Good thing I have Macs at home to calm and soothe the nerves!
