Oh sure, pick on the cripple kid.... I should make this perfectly clear; I have used MLCad with Virtual PC and it works. I have not used LDraw so I do not know if it works or not. Chris (...) (25 years ago, 2-Feb-00, to lugnet.trains)

Remember, if you have time to kill you can use LDraw (or MLCad) on a Mac with Virtual PC. You guys must have better Macs than my puny PB 1400 (G3); so, it shouldn't be nearly as torturous for you. When I can borrow the digital camera again I will (...) (25 years ago, 2-Feb-00, to lugnet.trains)
