Hi Paul

Are you using any Linux - based circuit - drawing packages or just a 2D
option in Rhino ?

Let me know at your convenience, thanks.

I have not tried to look. I keep an old DOS and an old  Windoze computer
around to run the odd program. I still use an old PC board program called
Tango from time to time running on DOS.

I run Rhino on a Windows PC
but there is something almost as good for Linux. Just have not
taken the time to learn it. I was using "joe" (Wordstar clone)
on Linux for the default editor but I am beginning to like
"gedit 2.8.1". Beats the heck out of Windoze Notepad and Wordpad.

"gedit" is a small and lightweight text editor for the GNOME Desktop

I am just getting into a free photo shop clone called "gimp" as I have a
bunch of pictures taken at the Le Bourget Paris aviation  museum
that came out too dark. Here are some examples. "gimp" is nothing
short of great.

Can anybody guess what type of jet engine this is?

The advantages of having several old computers lying around
is you can be rendering on one while typing on another
without slowing things down. I still use the sneaker net :)
