I am looking for a good graphics editor which

     - can help draw all kinds of figures and pictures 
     - produces postcript output which can be used with other TeX or
         LaTeX files 
     - can be used from suntools or X (reason for the cross posting) 
     - is a public domain software or a COMMERCIAL product (that is,
         willing to pay $$) 
     - is considerably better than graphedit or fig 

Could you suggest anything which meets MOST of these requirements ?
(We are exploring Autocad but not sure if it is worth its high cost.)

Thanks!
