3D for everyone

Well, Google have made their first move with SketchUp after they acquired it a couple of months ago. A free cut down version along side the "Pro" version still costing cash.

While the free version has nearly all of the features found in Pro the main omissions are quite limiting. No 3D import or export. You can only save in SketchUp's native format (.skp) or images restricted to your screen resolution.

Fair enough for the masses. Seems to have upset a few folks at SketchUp's forums though. A few business plans will need to be rewritten methinks. Give it a go, it really is an amazing bit of coding.
