Has anyone had the opportunity to compare Illustrator '88 on the
Mac as a drawing package for artists to CorelDraw for PCs? From
everything I've read, CorelDraw 1.1 looks to be a really good
package, but I don't have a feel for how it compares to Illustrator '88
on the Mac (or Freehand for that matter, although most people have
told me Illustrator is better than Freehand). I am asking this
question because a department here is being set up with a micro,
graphics tablet/pen, hand held scanner, and drawing package, but
we haven't decided if we will recommend a Mac or a PC for the micro.
Thanks in advance for any comments.
