prior to my present endeavors, i spent nearly 20 years in the software and systems development arena. in addition, i've programmed PLC's and operated many major machine centers so i'm very familiar with drawing, cad-cam, and machining software. i was therefor excited to start with the CarveWright™ designer software.
my initial feel for the SOFTWARE is good.
you may have happened to notice that i emphasized the word software... i did that cause i happen to like the software - but registration and activation is a different story. i think it blows!! but then again, that's just my opinion. and we all know what they say about opinions, right?
for those of you that need a refresher course, it goes like this: "opinions are just like butt holes - everybody has one, and we all think the other guy's stink!" be sure to replace "butt hole" with something more colorful to add impact. anyway, you get the picture.
i have lots of opinions on the software activation process and the whole licensing scheme in general. i'll be putting together a video on this and my initial thoughts about the design software in a couple days. i hope you'll come back and have a view.
