Still has great flaws but I have not seen anything easier and better.

Couldnt agree more Steve. I decided to shift and abandon Sketchup for its "lack of robustness" in handling complicated models way too many times. But the ease of use factor and the countless good things that is added every single day kept me coming back.

Thank goodness , very sloooow, but making great progress... I still see a promising future for SU as the user base grows tremendously.. It may not be "the one and only" 3d software you'll ever need, but it is becoming more and more indispensable in many 3d production workflow.
