| | | | | Hey John, I just started using MLCAD on my PB 1400 (G3 upgraded) boy is it pokey, but it works. It is a menu driven program so it is easy to figure out. I couldn't figure out LDRAW within the first 60 seconds so I gave up on it. So far I have drawn (...) (25 years ago, 24-Dec-99, to lugnet.trains)
