Intellicad 8

I like Intellicad. I have been using it as an Autocad replacement for nearly 10 year. During that 10 years, due to beta testing for Visio and free copies from Cadopia, I have never had to pay for a legal version in my life!!

Well that changed today. I have just ordered Cadopia 8 Professional Version. I opted for the download as it means I will have it quicker. So, hopefully, once America wakes up, my order can be processed and I can download my copy and get cracking with it!

I shall post sometime in the future about it and what I think of it.

Oh, Cadopia can be found at www.cadopia.com

F*cking Apple!

My name is Cad Monkey and I'm a gadget freak. There I've said it. god that feels good to get it off my chest!

I don't normally go out and buy the latest gadgets though, I wait a while and buy the next version. I generally let them work out the bugs before I buy.

I decided I wanted an Apple iPod Touch. Apple recently launched version 2 of this delightful piece of kit and I thought to myself, "I WANT ONE".

I have tried 5 shops, 3 in the UK and 2 in Ireland and have been unable to purchase one. They are all out of stock. Maybe they should take down the large posters that say "Apple iPod Touch Now In Stock!"

Seriously though, surely Apple in their infinite wisdom knew that these were going to be a hit. Why the hell then can't they get enough stock to suppliers??? I was quoted a 2 week waiting time by a store in Dublin last night. 2 weeks!!!

Well f*ck you Apple. You can take your iPod Touch and shove it up your hole. I have decided that I am not going to wait 2 weeks for you to get your act together and get the stock back in to stores.

It would seem that at this stage, I am destined never to own one of those shiny little music boxes. I shall make do with my 1G Nano with a whopping 2gig of space!
