Like it a lot. I am 67, but I felt at home in the program very fast and now I draw quite complex model drawings very fast. It is easy to learn but can do much more, than you would expect on the first glance. Had a question and support came back to me very quick. Made a suggestion about layer handling and they put it into the program within days. Amazing.

Cadintosh is incredible easy to use! I made hundreds of drawings over the time up to very complicated construction plans. As an organbuilder, I use it almost every week to make a quick drawing for woodwooking, etc. I tried a couple of other programs, but the ease of use always made me to come back to Cadintosh. And yes, it is not Autocad. But it costs $32! Worth every penny! And there is a very responsive support.

The problem with this package is it does not really behave like a mac application, it behaves well enough and does a job but its not really mac as we know it on the last 10 or so years. I always loved mac for its ease of use and intuitive feel and if i was going to put that finger on it i feel its that thats missing here

Once again, Thorsten Lemke makes me feel stupid. :-) CADintosh has a lot of tools, and like GraphicConverter, I can tell that there's a lot of power there. Unfortunately, my drawings in GC and my CAD in CADintosh look like a toddler's sketches. Maybe I'm too addicted to the idea of 3D CAD to be happy with 2D CAD? Anyway, I can hardly draw a straight line with this software, and I'm afraid I can't recommend it. BTW: The crash problem referred to below has apparently been fixed...
