I consider myself to be a model-based construction information practitioner (shortened to a ‘BIM- meddler’) rather than an ‘expert’ or even ‘specialist’ Thursday, November 10, 2011. I AM very-much in favour of letting BIM off the leash, and out on its own. Yes, clients should be asking for it.

I’ve learned AutoCAD on DOS, in 3D with no mouse in the early 1990s. I owned professional licences of AutoCAD, Revit, Studio Max for many years. The 1980-s AutoCAD was a good product for its time and the AEC industry; It supported the thinking of the ‘old master builders’, thinking and working in 3D.

When you visit the product site you will see its being paired up (suite pricing) and compared with AutoCAD LT as well as the obvious comparisons with the full featured Revit. It seems unlikely to me that Revit LT will truly serve any notion of BIM other than " lonely BIM ". I see this as being great for consultants.
