Re: KDE on Windows / Mac
by Joseph Gaffney on Friday 18/Jan/2008, @21:11

Its more than that too - its also for people like me. I use Linux and KDE at home, (almost) everywhere (I use a Mac for video editing and for my gf to use). My media pc's run Linux, my audio recording pc is Linux, my primary workstation in my home office is Linux - but I can't use Linux for work. I need AutoCAD (no comments about QCAD or other projects - they don't have dwg compatibility, which is what I need. If someone wants to start a project using Microstation's now open dgn format, thats definitely a great step - but alternatives to AutoCAD for what most AutoCAD users need do not exist).

So... my laptop runs Windows, because I need AutoCAD on the go. Today (Saturday, after the KDE-On-Windows talk), I realized there is now an easy tool - and I have it up and running. Its great to be able to use open source apps I feel more comfortable with, while still having AutoCAD to get work done on the go. Thanks go out to the KDE-Windows team for their (continual) hard work :)
