Bonjour and au revoir !

I’m in Paris for a few more hours. Now that AutoCAD Plant 3D 2010 is out, we’re doing a quick tour introducing Plant products to Southern Europe. Over the course of 3 days we will present in Paris, Milan and Madrid. I arrived in Paris a day early so I could look around some and get over the jet lag. Looking around yesterday was great -- Paris really is a gorgeous city, and the people a very friendly. (Really!).  Also, in case you didn’t know, the Louvre is closed Tuesdays.  So no Mona Lisa for me :-( And I’m not doing so great at getting over jet lag, as it is 4AM and I’m wide awake & blogging. 

I’ve been getting a lot of questions on AutoCAD Plant 3D and if it has parts for various industries. It can be a difficult question to answer, as everyone’s project requirements are slightly different.  But in short, we do not have content (yet!) for food and beverage or pharmaceutical plants. In particular, we do not have all the multiport valves that these industries typically use, nor do we have sanitary fittings. This first release focuses on the ANSI and DIN parts used in a typical Oil and Gas, Power or Petro-Chemical project. When I get back to the office next week I’ll track down the exact list of supported parts and standards.

Ok, I’m going to attempt to nap another few hours before my 7:30 wakeup.  And hopefully the Santa Maria delle Grazie in Milan will have walk up tickets available to see the Last Supper.
