Farnell Buys CadSoft!

autodeskguest
autodeskguest over 16 years ago

Hi Everyone,

 

For those who didn't see this in the German forums, I'll repost the

link...

 

http://www.electronicsweekly.com/Articles/2009/09/24/47028/premier-farnell-buys-design-software-firm-cadsoft.htm

 

I actually stumbled into Element14 last week and say that they had some

stuff on EAGLE and that they linked to Newark (Farnell company) with pages

listing that they were selling EAGLE.  I thought that was odd.

 

I'm not sure what this means for all of us.  Interesting days ahead...

 

James.

    "It also plans to extend the CAD software's capabilities by linking it to their databases"

     

    I just hope it won't result in bloatware....

    I see an overwhelming risc in the software developing too much farnell components/purchasing features

    and forgetting about functionallity and natural flow of the cad features, like so many other programs turning to bloatware.
