Inventor 2009 Gains Game Status

Inventor 2009 arrived last week. Opening the plastic case, I found four DVDs. Four! See illustration.

I showed off the package to my son. At first, he was not clear as to why he should be impressed. After all, some of his computer games came on six CDs, he told me. I casually remarked that these were DVDs, not CDs. He was impressed.

For all the talk from Autodesk about unified user interfaces, imagine my surprise when I found that the AutoCAD 2009-based Mechanical software doesn't gain the Microsoft-inspired ribbon. The Ribbon command instead brings up the old Dashboard.

And that's not even including Mechanical Desktop, go figure :)
