I did the same thing 4 years ago and hated having to make a decision based on more guess than fact; but I bought Mach and Rhino also and I haven't found anything yet I can't do. Taking one class at a community college doesn't hurt either. With the tuition, you can now buy at a student discount. Sometimes this is less than 20% of the retail price. Very few limit the functions on student copies. Oh, and the education hasn't hurt me none neither anyhow. |
