    Well kinda, google bought sketchup n have now released a cut down free version... Its €469 for the pro version so its handy for those that dont need all the features..

    Incase u dont know what it is its a 3d design tool thats dead easy to use n works a treat...

    Handy if ur planning a custom case n great for DIY work... I did a copy of my case on it after an hours use...

    Used this program a good bit in the past. Tis very good i normaly do houses in 3d with it. Its very easy to use anyone can pick it up after a few hours. Can import cad drawings into sketchup dont know if you can do other imports but i bet you can.
