              Their SU killer is Bonzai and I don't know what success they have had with that. Still it looks like a way to attract Form-Z users the way Make might attract Pro SU buyers.

                    Interesting : simple interface = serious concurrent for SU,
                    And more :

                    • curves, circles, spheres display smooth and parameters (radius, start, end ...) can be modified (but not after boolean operations)
                    • groups, components,.... as in SU
                    • instant GPU 'rendering' (multiple lights, smooth shading, specular reflection)
                    • sections with materiales !! (colors in Form-Z free, textures in pro)
                    • Layout for plan-production in pro, af for SU

                    Program frozen (windows explorer restarted) after putting the ambient occlusion map to 'massive'.

                      Form Z Free can also import .dwg files as well. Nice addition there.
