Dont think there is one. Theres DevCad thats made by the same guy who made Profili thats like $40 for the basic version. Basics not great tho and even the pro versions ........well its ok I guess but I cant use it for long.

For free, is a real nice program, I've played around a bit with it and it's pretty user friendly, even has options for ACAD, SW and other user interfaces, which is nice.

If you are a student and have a school e-mail address, yo can goto autodesk, register through the students area and download free, full edition, 13 month licenses for any of thier software. there are cracks out there that get rid of the time limit also.

You could always purchase a program call DesignCAD, its cheap something like 100 or 200 dollars. I know several individuals who purchased this instead of AutoCAD because of its easy use and they are happy with it.

Might be worth looking into.
