highly recommended

AutoCAD LT 2006 increases efficiency with across-the-board improvements, delivering a new standard in CAD productivity. It's designed to realize your ideas with maximum speed, power, and efficiency. From the new dynamic blocks capability that allows you to quickly create, manipulate, and extract data from blocks, to heads-up design, which keeps your focus on your work rather than on the software, AutoCAD LT 2006 makes an impact on the way you work, every single day.

Works a little better with each release......

I've been using AutoCAD off and on since it was a DOS program and it has continued to improve in ease of operation with each subsequent release that I've used from AutoCAD11 to the present. they haven't all been huge jumps in quality, but it has been at least a slight improvement with each one. I guess the only complaint I might have with this release is that the instruction manual might have gone into more depth; some one who is going to be using AutoCAD for the first time might still be lost with some of their explanations and examples, but then I suppose that's what all those aftermarket AutoCAD manuals are for.

AutoCAD06

Previously I had AutoCADLT1998 so I had to adjust to some program changes. I am pleased with my new software.

Product okay, description off

I receive the product in a timely manner. However, it was AutoCAD 2006, not AutoCAD LT 2006 as advertized. When I contacted the seller about this I received no response.

First LT Experience Better than Expected

Prior to using LT 2006 I had a full version of 2005. Most of the things missing between LT and the full version aren't a big deal if you don't do rendering or write code, but some of the absences are noticeable on a day-to-day basis (most notably Express Tools and polygonal viewports).

2006 has some neat new features, like the "dyanmic command-line input" which puts the command line at the cursor and actually has a clickable version of each command's options. They've also cleaned up some of the enhancements to 2005. For example there's now an undo feature built into the copy command, so it actually makes sense to default to multi-copy mode.

In addition to that, I've noticed that finally with AutoCAD 2006 and Acrobat 7.0 making PDFs is much easier. Font embedding is simple enough (though disabled by default), but more importantly all vecotrs in AutoCAD are rendered as vectors in Acrobat. This yields much smaller file sizes while providing much more professional-looking PDFs.

Finally, I must say that 2006 is the least-buggy annual AutoCAD release I've experienced. There is a service pack available, and it fixes some issues. But even without the service pack, while I would crash pervious versions all the time I think I've killed this version two or three times.

There's still room for some improvement, particularly in the online features (including downloading patches) but overall this is a decent upgrade... if you can afford it.
