[ubuntu-my] CAD working on Ubuntu: BricsCad (only trial version for free)

[Donald P Kong]

certainly refreshing to see someone providing an AutoCAD-like CAD
software for Linux. the problem is the 30-day trial and fairly expensive
license. i believe it is only slightly cheaper than AutoCAD LT.

might I suggest ProgeCAD running on windows for CAD users? it is free
but limited functionality and good for "light" users.

having to use AutoCAD is the only reason this laptop is dual-booting
Windows and Linux.
