Well here it is:

.DRW = MICROGRAFIX DRAW

I have access to both a PC & Mac, unfortunatly I dont know
of a package on the mac that opens .DRW files. Although Paintshop pro
on the PC supports this file extention.

I still don't know if this is a vector file or pict.

Paintshop pro is free for 30 days on most cover cd's on pc mags.

if you dont want to buy a pc mag then buy a NET mag or a 
cross platform mag

good luck
