At this point I don’t see Revit or 3D PDF’s on the horizon here.

I’ve had this discussion in the past with IT folks at my previous employers. Waiting for your computer to “catch up” with what you are asking it to do is a complete waste of time. If the controls on our excavator responded as slow as our office equipment we would have mechanics all over the machine until they were able to restore the responsiveness, yet at those same companies they have dozens of people working on computers that they wait on all day!

Ultimately it is a question of return on investment. Don’t need to have the estimators in Ferraris if they can win work in a Ford. But then again, how much more work could they win???? 😎
