Before you get your hopes up, sorry, I'll be around for awhile.  I've got 20 years of legacy data tied up in this program.

But, I thought you'd all like to see this video (3 minutes), and then discuss:

"Not renewing SolidWorks"

"I couldn't imagine going back to SolidWorks...too many memories of the pain and things that just don't exist anymore"

Hmmmm....

For some of us, despite what some of you will say, the grievances we bring to the forum are meant to allow SolidWorks opportunities to improve their craft.  The simple fact is I'm not the enemy of SolidWorks.  I'm still here paying my annual maintenance.  But these people and others like them have parted ways.  Probably a good idea to understand why.

By presenting a video such as that above, I think this can bring up a variety of interesting topics to discuss.

I'll keep my 2 cents for later, but if you've got thoughts, let's hear them.
