BW Interviews CB
Today's Business Week web page has an interview with Autodesk CEO Carl Bass. Nothing exciting to learn from Matt Vella's interview for those of us experienced with CAD -- other than Autodesk software designs the Mercedes Benz S-Class car. Not fully. I think the important phrase there is "with the aid of" and I am certain the unmade reference is to Alias, not Inventor.
Perhaps the lug nuts were designed in Inventor?
When it comes to prestige, most of Autodesk's was 'acquired' through M&A.
Reminds me of the spin job that was done on SOM's preference for their own customized vanilla AutoCAD on Freedom Tower, which is perfectly understandable considering that now, and for the forseeable future, neither Revit or any other model-based solution would be capable of handling a project of that magnitude.
