From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

its the right tool for everything engineering related; you can do drafting very easily, its built-in.
onshape may have a free tier, but piracy is better than free, due to "free" meaning that your information is the product being sold (to other vendors).
I've used SolidWorks for over 20 years, it is NOT the right tool for 2D layouts. That's what Draftsight was for, before they killed it.
You pirate away, good luck with trojans and viruses. I'll use Onshape.
I've been pirating for a looooooong time. I've never once gotten viruses. stick to private trackers, and proven uploaders for software (fitgirlrepacks, solidsquad, etc) and you won't get viruses.
