"Better package" always depends on what you want to do. Micrographix Designer
and Corel Draw are probably the two best *illustration* packages available
for the PC. Designer is slightly stronger at technical illustration while
Corel Draw is slightly stronger at advertising illustration. If what you
actually need is CADD (computer assisted drafting and design), neither will
do a good job for you -- get one of the CADD programs reviewed in the
current issue of PC Magazine.
