 TurboBADMay 19, 2006
By A. Morrow
This product is marketed as being able to import DFX and DWG files and it can't. The manual states that you can manipulate layers in the import preference setup and the program shows no such capability. In fact, it can't handle layers at all. Version 1.0 is at best beta software. Customer support is a joke. They charge $1.00 per minute for support calls and $10.00 per email. Spend your money on this program and you're on your own. False claims+no support=JUNK. Don't waste your money on this garbage. If I could give it no star, I would.

I'd give this zero stars if it was an option.Feb 24, 2006

I was looking for a simple drafting program to do floorplans and basic blueprints. The sales blurb implies this is exactly what I needed. However, the instruction booklet is useless, I emailed them several times asking if tutorials or templates were available and I got no response. I would have been happy to pay for them. There is an affiliated site offering instruction and tutorials, they never responded to my enquiries either. I'm sure if you are familiar with autocad this is a good alternative to more expensive programs, but I could not be sure.
I see no point in selling a product and offering zero customer service. I would return it but now it is installed I see no point in battling with amazon or turbocad, I will probably lose and end up winding myself up even more.
My advice - get virtual pc and pick from numerous architectural and drafting programs available at a fraction of the cost.

 Too confusingJun 28, 2007
By Matthew Winiecki
I used to use a much earlier version of turbocad for Mac OS 7. That program was wonderful. When this was introduced I naturally assumed it would be a much better update and just as easy to use. I was wrong. The program is difficult to use, or rather get started with. and there doesn't seem to be a way to easily set the grid or the final output size as there was in the previous versions.
Overall, I'm very disappointed in this product. The Manual wasn't much help either.
Terrible experienceAug 27, 2010

This product will not install on Mac OSX version 10.6.x. This is the response from IMSI:
"TurboCAD Mac v1.1 has not been tested or is supported on the operating system Leopard 10.6.x. The newly release version of TurboCAD Mac v5 is Snow Leopard compatible, for upgrade pricing please contact our sales department at [...]
So, this brand-new software is not usable for me, and IMSI wants me to buy an upgrade. The product page only says "Macintosh OS X (10.2) or greater". I hope Amazon will take this back, but either way it's a lot of wasted time and effort, and I still don't have the drawing software I need.
