SolidWorks 2005 Surface Tangency

"It ought not to have, but then VX shouldn't have been part of such a
discussion either."

However when you wished to discuss and plug TopSolids (a product that
you sell ) then everything was copacetic. LOL.

Jon,
I see you have lost your sense of humor as well.
Never mind.

 

I haven't lost my sense of humor. Just thought I would point out
a descrepency. I did see what you were trying to point out to John
S. and I think you did it in a nice way.

Did you perhaps notice I did not try and take John S. head off like
I would have done in the past ?

I welcome any factual discussion of TopSolid as long as it can
be measured with and compared to other products for free
by anyone who wishes to do so... ala what VX is doing.

Well Jon, maybe you should look into having the post removed off the servers.

It sure was surprising for me to read anyway, maybe not anyone else.
Jon, here's what I know, NO man if he's any kind of man at all would never
ever beat up a woman, hit a woman, strike a woman out of anger, kick a woman
half to death under no circumstances, that I'm sure you will agree with, but
I was sure hell shocked when I read it.

Someone was kind enough to send me Connie's picture,
nice looking little lady, she looks very kind and thoughtful.

Sure I can talk to Connie, maybe I can a cheer her up.
Here's my email address, does she have one also ?

LOL ..... A wasted effort (sorry to hear that though).
He'd have no clue anyway what's supposed to be *right*.

 

?

 

Good point.

 

She can be. She also can do some very desperate, mean and
nasty things. Metal illness untreated can be devastating and it has
been devistating for her.

Connie is not allowed to use a computer in the jail she
is currently residing at. Connie can only recieve letters and
those letters have to be in an envelope that has a stamp
printed on it... like you can buy from the post office.

If you e-mail me I will send you her address and her
cell / prisioner / jail number... don't really know what it's
called.

Connie is currently in the Sanford jail in Polk county near Orlando.

I don't know if the State Of Florida releases any information and
posts it on the web so that you would not even need to e-mail me
and you could obtain it directly.

Once again I have no intention of trying to have her post removed
of the server. It's her post not mine and like I said it doesn't really
bother me anymore.

Use all the "correct" names, BB <G>.
Don't forget a Net search too. He's been very
well known (as a pest) on many a BBS too but many
posts are gone from many of them.

 

Well then, why didn't you just leave it alone?

I don't waste the time or energy I have promoting my products in
unproductive venues like this, and free demo's at the Missler level are not
something a high probability customer is interested in. The TopSolid
discussion I think you are referring to was not really about TopSolid at all
and the result was that I volunteered to, and then actually did, translate
some Catia files for a SW user - for free. I didn't try and sell him a
thing, just helped him get a job delivered. Making yourself useful,
professional to professional, is it's own reward and I suspect that if I
needed the favor returned for some reason it would be, and gladly at that.

You also have to consider that TS and SW do not compete. Not at all. They
serve entirely different markets. Will TopSolid outperform SolidWorks?
Absolutely, and anyone with a working knowledge of both will tell you that.
This does not mean that everyone should run out and purchase TS nor does it
mean that SW professionals are any less professional for their use of
SolidWorks. The things SW brings to the table beyond the product are both
formidable and remarkable. You shouldn't belittle any of it. DSS is a great
company and they know what they want to accomplish. They can and will do
whatever they think best. A SW user looking to migrate to a fuller solution
is going to go with CATIA or UG, not VX, and if you have a hard look at
those products the reasons are clear.

Have you purchased a CAD/CAM/CAE or CAO product lately Jon? Do you really
think your comments sway qualified purchasers in a positive and thoughtful
way? They don't Jon, just the opposite. You are so in your face and abrasive
that the value of your content is drowned out by your own vituperation. This
is certainly your prerogative and within your control. You know I feel this
way and I have said as much to you without getting all worked up.

In my own small and humble opinion Jon, your proselytizing of the latest
killer ap is the best thing that could happen, NG wise, for my sales. I
don't mean that as a slam either, it's just true. Keep up the good work!

 

"Do you really think your comments sway qualified purchasers in a positive
and thoughtful way?"

I think my comments makes some people *think*. I could careless if they
purchase or don't purchase software. I have a much different perspective
than you do as unlike you I don't sell and support software and don't derive
any financial benefit from whatever someone does or doesn't purchase.

I think my comments cause some people to look at products they would not
otherwise try.

I think my comments promote comparitive discussion between products.

"Keep up the good work!"

I'll try. :>)

How much has he lied about?

So they were about 12 when they started this? Seems a bit under age
to me, even for CT.

Has anyone noticed yet that you are clueless?

 

"Better than sliced bread"? Was that before or after you got caught
claiming some parts others did were yours?

After all your rants over all the years about the "better than
sliced bread" stuff?

Since you saw a free demo?

You have to speak or him now, do you?

So it's really, really good at IC, LSI & PCB design?

Hey, it's YOUR "argument" afer all.

So you don't want "total control" any more?

What a hoot !!!

You'd actually have to use it to do something.

What? Surfaces?

Have any actual "concepts"? How about just a brick?

Etch-A-Sketch. Too complicated?

This will be good I expect <G>.

 

Can you find one? (You may use both hands.)

 

No, it is and always was his decision not to upgrade. But it's not
necessary to rant and rave about it - just get another program that works
better for you and move on.

Yes. Politeness is required on the Rhino newsgroup. That's part of the
deal. If you can't deal with that, post elsewhere.

No, rudeness is unacceptable.

BS. It's just someone going back to a three year old level and throwing a
temper tantrum because they didn't get what they wanted. If a program which
you initially bought and liked doesn't evolve the way you like, that's too
bad. If after a certain time of politely asking for stuff, you see it's not
going to happen, don't upgrade, just move on.

Hmm, funny. You'd think after all these years, of everyone being
"disappointed" and "waiting and waiting" , there'd be no Rhino users left in
the world... Should be nobody left on the Rhino NG either... Must be
something wrong here... Why are all those "product loyalists" so loyal?

No, it's not any more stupid than your arguments.

Bottom line is, the market will decide which programs survive and which
don't. Most likely both Rhino and VX will continue to grow and prosper. It
isn't a one-or-the-other situation. What I don't understand is you and
Michael seem to take it as a personal offense that Rhino didn't end up doing
what you wanted it to do. But actually that's not for you to decide (nor
me, for that matter). It's entirely up to Mr. McNeel, and how he sees fit
to run his company and develop his product.

OK, I have spent enough time on this thread, I have a lot of work to do, and
it's Monday morning...

Best line in months! Thanks for brightening my day (and coming up with the
PERFECT metaphor)

 

Your point being?

Who made the post(s)?

 

They certainly do.
I'll grant you that one. Indeed I will. What have I posted before
about random chance & your guesses? Sooner or later you have to get
something right, right? It was bound to happen if we waited long
enough.


They think that you are a buzzword impaired clueless idiot.
I agree with them.

 

Sort of like pounding themselves on the head?
AFAIK All have lived to regret it.

 

Heh, the following is highly bragadocious of which is fine, but you
obviously dont know me or what I do each day.
Which is OK. But next time do some research.

Well, duh.

Not design.

I've rolled my own before. But if yer designing them then you got one on
me.

Well, water/oil/air.

Ayuppers. Molds are kind of inherent to hydraulics. Tee hee

Na, I aint a good writer. Plus I dont have a secretary or sidekick.

Same as above

And above

Yea, I do order my own business cards from time to time.

WOW. How kewl!
I'm proud of ya!

Bing wonders who or what that is?

I wouldnt know.

I would if I were you.
Personally I accept that I made my own prison.

You did forgit about running a shop with 8 people to manage though.
You also forgot about quoting, direct sales, neumatics, metalluragy,
actually running machines, programming, training, MIS, process flow,
robotics, resin recommendation and processing, answering the phones,
board meetings, cleaning the toilets, etc.

So I think you got me a bit wrong in yer assesment.

Next time do a little research.
