Yes, folks, that time of year is fast approaching. Autodesk has lifted the wraps on the next version of AutoCAD, called (wait for it) AutoCAD 2009. Which means, of course, that shipping of the product is not far away. Various CAD media, beta testers and so forth have been playing with it for a while and were under a non-disclosure agreement.
Until now, that is. As of today, there is a whole lot of information suddenly appearing on web sites and blogs. I won’t try to duplicate all that here, but rather give a list of links to some of this content (watch for word wrap.) Happy surfing!
