I found the FloorPlan 8 easy to use...but Turbocad is completely useless to me without a user guide or manual. It is not user friendly in any respect. Even the Help section is no help at all.

I'll try to locate a printed 'how-to' guide before I give up. It may be great for an experienced architect...but I need a computer course to figure out how to use the program.

I picked this up so I could create 2-D and 3-D drawings of furniture (among other things). It's hard enough to understand CAD. It's even harder without a tutorial or a guide to cover the basics. The manual is packed with data but it assumes that you already know all you need to know about CAD.

Being a software developer for many years, I find it bothersome to purchase a program that does not provide a set of basic lessons for those people who are not experts. I find it irritating.

If it contained a nice basic tutorial, it would be much more useful. As it is, I installed the program, read what I could of the manual, searched a great deal through the web site (imsi) and found little to nothing on how to get from point A (a concept) to point B (a drawing).

I agree with the comments by other users. I still havent found a basic tutorial to understand this program. Its very disapointing. I want to draw but its so complicated I will just use a peice of paper to do my drawing.

Dont buy Turbo CAD

now admitttedly i am impatient, but i found this product to be unweildy and unfriendly. i had been using broderbund's "instant architect" (which was soooo excellent) for years until a change in operating systems forced me to find an alternative. after several attempts to make it productive, i've given up. i no longer have it installed on my machine.
