As a result of the discussions on this list, I recently purchased a copy of
Turbocad 6.5, from the web site for 99$.  I came as two CD's (one is demo),
and a manual that I am working through. Looks very powerful.

I would be interested in the ( a reasonably accurate 13b drawing for example)
if you care to send it.  Send directly to Wschertz2@aol.com if Paul doesn't
want to upload it to the entire list.

I will be glad to up load them if the dwg's are available. I suspect they
were always jpg's from a web site source someplace.
