Subject speaks for it's self. I got a question from a Dutch Lowlug member regarding running MLCad (and other LDraw related software) on Windows Vista. Does anyone have experience in doing so? Thanks. Jaco (19 years ago, 20-Apr-07, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

Tim, That's really well done. You've captured the feeling of wood in plastic... not an easy task. Better still, you've captured the spirit of that old toy and that's even harder to do. Very cool. :) Allan B. (19 years ago, 20-Apr-07, to lugnet.color, FTX)
