Buying a used license?
Buying a used license?
(OP)
Hi,
I'm not sure if the subject has been debated, but I'd like to buy AutoCAD LT2000. Autodesk does not support it anymore. As per the license contract, is it possible for someone to resell his license to someone else? (if he hasn't purchased an upgrade, of course)
I want LT2000 because I still use Win98 as my OS, and most of my other licenses are for older versions running under Win98. The newer versions require Win2K or XP. That would make my move very expensive. I'm just an occasional user.

package from a source in Germany. The
extender package does allow using autolisp
commands and it seems to run faster. I have
only been using it for a month so I have not
really that much experience with it, but so
far am quite pleased.

They have their reasons. (Far be it for me to suggest they don't want a secondhand market for expired software that would stop users buying new and more expensive software!)

Best bet, if you want the functionality of AutoCAD, ,but not the overhead, invest in IntelliCAD from www.cadopia.com, it has all of the features of full fledged AutoCAD, including VBA and LISP, reads and writes DWG files and best of all is reasonable.

I'll check for alternate packages to AutoCAD then. Thanks for the tip on IntelliCAD, Striker.
