Episode #148
I’m an old Mac fan that has just returned to Macs after using Window machines for years. I use to use a program called MacDraw. It reminds me of MSVisio. Is there something similar available today? I’m a newbe so Web cams on the Mac are still foreign. Some thing else to talk about?

MacDraw is long gone. If you’re looking for something like Visio try OmniGroup’s OmniGraffle. For a more Autocad like experience try formZ but it’s $1200. The $50 DoodleCAD from Doodlebytes is probably the closest to MacDraw out there. All of these programs offer free trials so you pick the one that’s closest to what you want.
