    As I recall, you were the one who pointed out to the Big8 that Matt
    Like Paul Kellner and Tom Brewer, Matt Lombard doesn't have clue one
    what those in manufacturing need for CADCAM tools. Idiots like these
    refuse to address why the history based modeling tools in Pro/E and
    SolidWorks are a total failure when it comes to working with non-
    native solids or when you have to try and understand someone else's
    design intent.

    Here is one person who has figured out who idiots like Matt Lombard
    are and what idiots like Matt Lombard are trying so hard to protect:

    http://worldcadaccess.typepad.com/blog/2008/12/matt-reviews-synchtech.html

    "Matt - Thanks for that interesting view of ST from a SolidWorks
    user's perspective.

    But, with regards to that technology, I think you and others in this
    conversation are not be seeing the larger picture.

    What ST and its peers will ultimately do is make CADD and CADD-like
    functionality accessible to people that are not trained CADD operators
    or experts like you - because they shouldn't have to be highly-trained
    or experts, regardless of who may believe that incredibly complicted,
    hard-to-use CADD systems coindicentally serve as a convenient means of
    protecting ones 'domain' and maintaining the high value that's
    typically placed on their skills.

    The ultimate goal of ST is to allow those who consume our designs to
    participate in the design process in new and much more interactive
    ways that were not previously possible or practicle, due to the
    barriers imposed by traditional CADD systems like SolidWorks,
    Inventor, et.al.

    Just as anyone can pick up a pencil and sketch out their ideas on
    paper, we want anyone to be able to easily do the same with a
    computer, in 3D, and with little or no training.

    That's what emerging technolgies like ST are really about, and given
    the aformentioned goals, one can also understand why some may regard
    it as more of a threat, rather than merely a better, more productive
    way of working." ... Tony Tanzillo

    So do many hairdressers.
    That's not what it sounded like.
    Guess who just answered some questions (and pointed out
    a few facts)!!!
    Why?
    I don't see you helping jb.

    Matt.

    Schmatt.

    Where was Matt when the survey was taken in September?

    Posting on his blawg.

    Where was Matt during the ensuing discussion with news.groups and the
    B8MB?

    Posting on his blawg.

    Where was all the support that crawled out of the woodwork (in response
    to a post on Matt's blawg) to reply to the survey during the discussion
    with news.groups and the B8MB when their voices were needed by the
    proponent for the change.

    Posting on and reading Matt's blawg of course. Where else would they be?

    Where's Matt now?

    Who cares?

    But his continued lack of presence here says exactly everything anyone
    needs to know about his concern for comp.cad.solidworks.

    My response:

    "Tony,

    "But, with regards to that technology, I think you and others in this
    conversation are not be seeing the larger picture."

    In my view a big part of the larger picture is using ST/Direct
    Modeling to be able to manufacture product designs faster. Frankly,
    I'm really sick of reading the endless nonsense on design intent. I
    work for a very large company that has many seats of Pro-E and not one
    engineer has ever asked our machine shop to preserve their design
    intent. Their main interest seems to focus on one area... can they
    have their parts today and how can we make their parts faster and
    cheaper.

    ST/Direct Modeling are the tools that machinists and CADCAM
    programmers need to give designers and engineers their part in the
    fastest possible time. Most of the CADCAM systems being used today
    don't have powerful ST/Direct Modeling tools and most of the CAD in
    CAM systems is very badly out of date an so far behind the times that
    it's laughable.

    Let’s make no mistake, NX 6 is the clear leader in providing a
    complete solution for manufacturing as CoCreate has no CAM that runs
    inside of it. PTC simply isn't anywhere near as good as Siemens at
    creating fully integrated CADCAM systems. While PTC is buying out
    companies and using others CAM technology Siemens is rolling their
    own. I’d be happy to provide specific examples where NX has moved away
    from industry standard software components and created their own
    components in order to give the CADCAM user a better more integrated
    solution."
