  Re: Am I the only person who finds Lego CAD systems infuriating?
 
(...) HEY! i was on that "joke" as you call it. and we were VERY SLOWLY making inroads as to where to go. I mean a motion was tabled, someone took charge. items were discussed. I think the LPRC served a purpose and had an outcome that I was pleased (...) (19 years ago, 1-Sep-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)  
 
  Re: a fight at the playground
 
(...) Yeah, I guess you and Chris Magno are right. I really should just set my skip filter and learn not to intrude. The spotlight on the original post and the word CAD pulled me in, sorry. So I suppose I should probably cancel the post? Is there an (...) (19 years ago, 1-Sep-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Yes, and surprisingly I've discovered they are not that difficult to follow. Looks as confusing as hell though, when you see the last step first. (...) No, I think we just laugh at you. :-) Derek (19 years ago, 1-Sep-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: Am I the only person who finds Lego CAD systems infuriating?
 
(...) Addressing each of these points (for MLCad as that's what I'm most used to): Learnability: Low Efficiency: Very high (that's where features comes in) Memorability: Decent Errors: Very low (none really) Satisfaction: Highish However the (...)

  a fight at the playground...Re: Am I the only person who finds Lego CAD systems infuriating?
 
(...) You mean you had hope that something useful would come from this newsgroup? I guess you haven't been watching very close. (...) That's right. What gives Calum the right to speak his mind? Who put him in charge, anyway? (...) How many examples (...) (19 years ago, 1-Sep-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: Am I the only person who finds Lego CAD systems infuriating?
 
(...) Hi Calum: I’ve done reasonably extensive MOC-modeling, and I’ve written a large number of parts, so I like to think that I’m no slouch re: LEGO-based CAD. However, I’ve never had success with any platform other than the original LEdit. Every (...) (19 years ago, 1-Sep-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

  Re: Am I the only person who finds Lego CAD systems infuriating?
 
(...) Exactly. It's easy to mock. I've mocked committees before. Heck, I thought the LPRC was an April Fools joke - and look how right I was about that. (...) But the point of enthusiast organisation committees is that they think they need them. If (...) (19 years ago, 1-Sep-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
