Free Trial version of SWX?
Free Trial version of SWX?
(OP)
Is there any way I can aquire a free trial version of SolidWorks?
My nephew is interested in CAD and I'd like to show him the basics of the software, so I'd I only need it for a few days.
It appears SolidWorks stopped offering their "Personal Edition" trial software but I'm hoping an old version might still be floating around somewhere.
I don't care what version it is or whether or not it watermarks the files or even if it has the ability to save files.

or
students can download Autodesk Inventor Professional for free from http://engineersrule.org

I thought about the Inventor/Alibre option, but I'm very familiar with SolidWorks and trying to demo a new CAD probram will be slow and confusing.
I guess my only option is to buy the book w/the trial disk.
Thanks guys.

Journey Ed I believe also offers student editions with prices for students or Professionals for non commercial use.
