Tax Day!... Ugg. Here is the US the dreaded April 15th rolls around and for those of us who had to pay...a moment of silence. Anyway, tech news can be a little thin during this time of year right before the hot beta season kicks off but still a ton going on.
SolidWorks has made some great strides to get more technical content into the SolidWorks blog by inviting some guest bloggers from their reseller (VAR) channel. This has already brought some great posts into the fold and I hope to see more of it continue over the coming months.
With the release of SolidWorks Plastics, 2012 SP3 and more technical content, tech news is easier to come by these days. I should get some time on SWPL over the coming weeks and recap the thoughts so far. We did get it installed yesterday and the interface is really nice and workflow is simple with a lot of configuration options so stayed tuned! ~Lou
