Does anybody have or know where I can get the old mitre saw assembly that solidworks used in the past?

I recently received a disturbing, well more like annoying, phone call from a PTC rep. They were trying to tell me that the SW kernel license from Seimens will expire in 2012 and cause SW to switch everyone over to Catia. Or, as he put it, switch to Creo from PTC.
I had to contain my laughter...
Our company is looking to use PDM enterprise to help streamline our documentation.
We recieved a quote and...ouch. Our IT guys also informed us that if it uses "Microsoft SQL Server" we can look to spend a whole lot more cause of the software anf hardware required to run it.

This is just a general question.
Has anyone been having problems with SW-any version giving insufficient memory errors.
I currently have 2GB of ram and my VM is increased to 4X my actual memory.
Besides trying to go to a 64bit system, which will require me to use two computers for everyday...
Does anyone have a website or info on properly designing a counterweight for vacuum pumps and/or air compressors?
I have a funny feeling that we may be using a counterweight that is not properly designed for our application.

Has anyone come up with an easy way to create an oval shaped helical sweep? It would be like a formed aluminum tubing. I've used a 3D sketch before but is is labor intensive.

Has anyone tried making their own watermark in SW2008.
You know something that would go across the drawing that would say DRAFT or something. I print on a BW laser printer but everything seems to come out black. I haven't tried printing in grayscale yet.

Has anybody experienced their physical memory be eaten by solidworks. What i mean is that once you close a part, drawing, etc... solidworks doesn't dump the memory allocated for opening that specific file. Also has anyone notice how much mem it actually takes to open SW. Mine uses 200 to...
We have found that in SW2006 SP1 when you first open a drawing, your text goes white. We can get it back to normal but we have to closethe drawing then reopen it.

Every so often I'll open a drawing or model and get a big black bar along the left and top of my viewport pane of Solidworks. I'm using a HP xw8000, Xeon proc, 1.5GB Ram, Nvidia Quadro4 380XGL card. The only thing is that the video driver I have is from HP NOT Nvidia or the one listed on SW...
I've just installed SW2006 SP1 about 1 1/2 weeks ago and every so often I'll open a drawing or part and the dimensions and note text will be missing. I am still able to select them. Once a close the file and reopen it, it's fine.
Any ideas what might be wrong?

Can anybody steer me towards someone who makes multilayered insulation wrapping machines for cryogenic vessels.
Thanks in advance.

I'm trying to find out what the minimum pressure spec is for a cyrogenic liquid oxygen vessel before it needs to be DOT certified.

Has anyone had to make sure that SW was a "FDA Approved" software package. The FDA regulates software used in or for the manufacturing of medical devices. Such as any CAD program used to create drawings for said devices.
Our "IT" department has informed us that the program needs to be...
Does anybody have suggestions for reducing file sizes of parts, drawings and assemblies in SW? I'm a detail oriented engineer and like to see everything how it's going to be once it's manufactured. That includes true screw and pipe threads. I have one assembly that's close to 100mb and only...
I have recently installed SW2004 SP01 and I have a problem rotating my models, with a spaceball 5000, when they are in HLV with the draft quality HLR/HLV button turned off.
Basically SW crashes giving me an "unhandled error". I reloaded the latest drivers for the spaceball and still...
Does anybody have suggestions on what kind of plastic to use in a cyrogenic vessel. The liquid is approx. -300° F.
The plastic would only be exposed periodically, maybe twice a day for about 1 to 2 minutes at a time. I've thought of using PFA but wanted to find alternatives.
No stresses are...
