Architosh 2.0: We're different!
Welcome all to Architosh 2.0! We are at long last ready to roll
with the new layout and anxious to puff out the content within this
new super-sleek structure. Yes! Architosh 2 is entirely re-architected
for the future and we think it's going to be insanely great!
What's Here, What's to Come?
The good folks at Nemetschek, N.A. (formerly Diehl Graphsoft Inc.)
were kind enough to work on a special
exclusive interview with Architosh for our introduction. Let
me tell you something about Nemetschek. This company is passionate
about Macintosh and very excited about OS X. Sean Flaherty, chief
technology officer of Nemetschek, N.A, sat down to chat with us
about the future of VectorWorks
on OS X. This is a special read for all Mac users concerned
with CAD and 3D visualization on the Macintosh, as it covers key
OS X issues related to all CAD/3D on OS X.
In a related feature article
we cover additional items regarding the G4 processor with AltiVec
and the future of multiprocessing. And in the near future we will
provide the most extensive library of PowerPC processor information
outside of the AIM Alliance. Other news articles and features include
the first segment of our Macworld Expo
New York reports.
In the not too distant future we will produce another special interview
and dive deeply into our Mac OS X technical series articles. By
next week our Architosh news reports
will be back in full swing and over the course of August you will
see a rapid fluffing out of the new site. Please feel free to poke
around and get a sense of all the different areas that are coming
up. You can find our old stuff by going to the News
page.
We Listen
Architosh 2.0 was designed based on extensive reader feedback in
a survey form run in 1999. Chief among your request was greater
news coverage in a broader range of disciplines. Industrial
design and engineering news, were just some of the key items you
were interested in reading about. So we changed our main page to
become a 'vertical portal' to all things Mac CAD/3D and all things
related to the disciplines that involve Mac CAD/3D. It's very simple.
We provide daily links to interesting stuff around the Web and sort
it out by design/engineering category. We hope you find cool stuff,
but in case you don't, please
let us know what you like to read.
We have a lot of exciting stuff coming up. It's been quite a ride.
Architosh 2.0 almost turned out to be our own personal 'Copland'
experience, and that concerned us. So we are introducing 20 percent
of the site today (with the new main page/portal) and will roll
out the remaining 80 percent of the site over the next few weeks.
So thanks for being such a great and patient audience. Now get
back to work...and do something insanely great on your Mac!
Kindest Regards,
