Hello from a Cartography Student

Welcome, good demo maps on that little link and you have loads more... chewy. And that list of software is cool. We have had a few people here with ArcGIS but noone who I think is particularly (at least publicly) proficient with it. And we have seen some talk of the illustrator plug in but not much actual talk of real experience with it. Then you have AutoCAD where a few members here us it pretty effectively I think some particularly so. Personally I dont know of Geomatica so tell us about it and also let us know your experiences with these bits of software and why you like some of their features.

edit -- well I have looked at the Geomatica website and I still don't know what it does. I get the feeling that it somehow organizes maps but it sure is a terrible website.
