Would there be a list of the companies that have solids modeling packages? I glean from 26 that Parasolid is either a package and/or a company that competes with Euclid. Are there others? I'm looking for something like Euclid and running on a 3520/3540 Ultrix system. Although the prospect would like a Ultrix system, they are not averse to VMS. Is there such a list with locations and telephone numbers? Or is Euclid pretty much the only major package? Thanks in advance. Scott

| 30.2 | Why do you want a 3520/40? | CADSE::BOYACK | Smith & Wesson beats a full house | Thu Nov 16 1989 17:53 | 27 |
In your note you specify the 3520/40.
Therefore, the application must support Phigs.
All of the systems that James listed in -.1 are NOT currently available
on that platform. Several have announced their intentions to port to
Ultrix and/or Phigs.
Although none of those vendors mentioned have yet delivered on these
promises, you will see some applications available around Q1CY90. Most
are planning to make Ultrix/RISC versions available. A few have
specifically declined porting to the VS3520/40.
Also Bravo is NOT yet in the price book. The announcement recently made
will lead to that end, but from past experience I know it will be a
"few" months.
So, if you really require the 3520/40,
LOOK BEFORE YOU LEAP !!!
Don't bring any vendor in until their software is available and through
a good QA and it's clean and provides resonable performance, otherwise
you are just shooting yourself in the foot and jeapordizing the
account.
