Hello,
I thought I'd pass this along to you all. This website http://www.x-cad.net (http://www.x-cad.net) is giving away their new 3D CAD software to the first 100,000 people to register on their site by August 1st. It's going fast though so check it out before it's over with.
God Bless,

This was in 2005 now is 2021. Some comments are interesting from perspective of:
-Moore's Law in computing .
-internet and internet security evolution ,
-We may look at it from geography stand point.
So if we take Russia or to be more accurate Russian Federation than what has changed :
1989 Poland ( Solidarity movement) impacted Soviet Terror and following it "chain reaction" changed Europe.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dissolution_of_the_Soviet_Union (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dissolution_of_the_Soviet_Union#:~:text=The%20dissolution%20of%20the%20Soviet%20Union%20%281988%E2%80%931991%29%20was,end%20of%20its%20existence%20as%20a%20sovereign%20state.)
While several Eastern Europe countries for the first time since 1938 gained freedom from Russian oppressors they also gained access to Western World
technological advance joining computer revolution.
1990 Russian internet trolls, scammers, were not yet organized, but for Russian bandits, thieves,and all kind of other Russian criminals, it was their golden era.

Russian were late in computers for about 15 years comparing to Western world.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_computing_in_the_Soviet_Union
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_computing_in_the_Soviet_Union#:~:text=The%20history%20of%20computing%20in%20the%20Soviet%20Union,Khrushchev%20era%2C%20and%20computer%20production%20was%20officially%20encouraged.)
QuoteThe Soviet government decided to abandon the development of original computer designs and encouraged the pirating of Western systems.[4]
Soviet industry lacked the technology to mass-produce computers with acceptable quality standards,[6]
and locally manufactured copies of Western hardware were unreliable.[7] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_computing_in_the_Soviet_Union#cite_note-FOOTNOTEJudyClough1989251%E2%80%93330-7) As personal computers (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_computer) spread to industries and offices in the West, \
the Soviet Union's technological lag increased.[8] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_computing_in_the_Soviet_Union#cite_note-lat86-8)Nearly all Soviet computer manufacturers ceased operations after the breakup of the Soviet Union (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dissolution_of_the_Soviet_Union).[9] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_computing_in_the_Soviet_Union#cite_note-FOOTNOTEProkhorov19994%E2%80%9315-9)
The few companies which survived into the 1990s used foreign components and never achieved large production volumes.[9] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_computing_in_the_Soviet_Union#cite_note-FOOTNOTEProkhorov19994%E2%80%9315-9)
Since
1917 the time when Russians murdered
-Russian Tzar,
-his wife,
-his children
-and servants and their families and families of their relatives.
-and even pets belonging to them,
till today not much changed for better.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Execution_of_the_Romanov_family (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Execution_of_the_Romanov_family)
So as much as all of us, or some of us, would like to respect Russian Nation and former Soviet Union with its history
- the truth must be applied to make the 2005 3D CAD software for Free offer - conclusive and logical as motion, from historical stand point.Not much has changed in any industry for Russian Federation the clone of Soviet Union past including technological advance.
Soviet "mass murders" were replaced starting from
1990 by its modern forms of influence and elimination of unwanted, impacting the modern world .... but now also technologically affecting any independent
commercial activity too.

For some of independent professionals Russian Federation of today acts in its form similarly to one of the biggest ever in the history of the world forms of :
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_mafia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_mafia)
QuoteThe level of political corruption and arms sales in a post-Soviet Russia allowed for massive expansion and incorporation of many government officials into the crime syndicates.
The Russians also dabbled in uranium trading stolen from the Soviet nuclear program and human trafficking.[8] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_mafia#cite_note-8)
And now we have year
2005 some unknown company that is offering 3D CAD software for free.
2017-2005= 12 years difference. ( technological structural advance)
Russian troll Agency as a Russian Government tool .
The January 2017 report issued by the United States Intelligence Community (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Intelligence_Community) – Assessing Russian Activities and Intentions in Recent US Elections (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assessing_Russian_Activities_and_Intentions_in_Recent_US_Elections) – described the Agency as a troll farm (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troll_farm):

https://www.nettantra.com/2015/01/evolution-computers/ (https://www.nettantra.com/2015/01/evolution-computers/)
First Generation – Vacuum Tubes (1940 – 1956)
Second Generation – Transistors (1956 – 1963)
Third Generation – Integrated Circuits (1964 – 1971)
Fourth Generation – Microprocessors (1972 – 2010)
Fifth Generation – Artificial Intelligence (2010 Onwards)
in
2002 not many Russians had computer
Quote5 number per 100 households in 2002 to 49 number per 100 households in 2016
https://knoema.com/atlas/Russian-Federation/Yaroslavl-Region/Number-of-personal-computers (https://knoema.com/atlas/Russian-Federation/Yaroslavl-Region/Number-of-personal-computers) ( applies to an average of entire Russian Federation)
in 2004
Vladimir Putin Владимир Путин Born 1952 ... who was appointed by Yeltsin in 2000 was reelected in 2004 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2004_Russian_presidential_election).
He is holding his power till today - the president now "forever.." ( approved by Russian Duma to be reelected till
2036)
And one of first signs of Russian influence was visible as expansion of Russian trolling, eavesdropping,
spying, destroying professionals by rules of simple attraction
So often e.g interested in 3 D software, find themselves affected by activity similar to that from 2005.
Modern Russia was gaining its experience of impacting world that has that what they don't have .

Can you believe it? what the form of primitive approach to hide and gain.

Quote«Есть у русского человека
бескорыстная любовь к подлости. Он ничего с этого иметь не будет, но гадость ближнему сделает»
Николай ГОГОЛЬ, писатель, драматург (1809 – 1852):
Translation of text from the picture: "The Russian person has a disinterested love for meanness.
He will have nothing from this, but he will do nasty things to his neighbor. \"
Nikolai GOGOL, writer, playwright (1809 - 1852)
Very famous person. Gogol was one of the first to use the techniques of surrealism (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surrealism) and the grotesque (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grotesque)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikolai_Gogol (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikolai_Gogol)
I do thank you for this quote.
There is a potential in everyone despite his origin , color ,gender , nationality, believes or religion.
And the only important is his/her positive contribution to humanity .
