Title: DaveCAD
Post by: chrome on July 07, 2012, 01:02:47 pm

Shouldn't DaveCAD be called like DAD or something?

Unless Dave is a computer it's not a Computer-aided Design.
DAD however would be Dave-aided Design (or Dave Assisted Design/Drawing)

I would like a copy of Dave CAD. Fully autonomous without me having to do more than just give a brief idea to get a fully functioning drawing. Of course the upgrade to Dave CAD/CAM would be better still.

Only 60 years ago, a computer was job position for someone who does computations. It isn't much of a stretch to call a person a computer as they have the capability to do what an electronic computer does, computes.
