Auto CAD for Mac

[MstrPBK]

I now use AutoCad LT on a Windows system, but want to switch over to my iMac a ditch the Windows. I do not need but afraction of the features of Autocad LT, so am looking for a relatively simple Mac drawing program. My needs are to draw a simple footprint of a building, adding certain symbols to represent needed repairs and activities.

I've looked at McDraft, but hear it's buggy, ViaCad, Turbocad, DoodleCad and MacDraw, but am not sure what would work best for my needs. Anyone?

Your solution maybe EasyDraw.

CADopia 11 for Mac is a brand new AutoCAD compatible software for Mac OS X. I have tried an evaluation version from CADopia's web site and it is among the first CAD software for Mac OS X that is very similar to AutoCAD, requires almost no re-training. I was a previous user of CADopia software for Windows since 1999. It is a well regarded software technical drawings. Try it out.

I've been taking an AutoCAD course for the last 5 weeks and I was required to download the AutoCAD software from Autodesk. AutoCAD 2011 for Mac runs great on my 2010 Mini; there are only a few differences to the windows version that I've encountered so far, otherwise it seems relatively the same. It’s worth a try if you can get the free version or if you have the money for it.
