Its loose... AutoCAD 2006 is coming your way
"If you couldn’t find a reason to upgrade to AutoCAD 2005, you will want to take a close look at AutoCAD 2006. There are just so many enhancements across the board they every user can benefit from this release."
Jimmy Bergmark
AutoCAD 2006 is soon to be released
"There are plenty of nice things in this version. Don't be afraid that you don't see the command line. You can show and hide it by pressing CTRL+9. And do you know what? I actually like having it hidden. The improved heads up design makes it possible."

"With the new "Dynamic" mode of input, you can literally do away with the command line!"
"With the new block editor you can take an existing block definition and supercharge it, or create new more flexible blocks. "
Scott Durkee:
CAD Mgmt: AutoCAD 2006 Coming Soon
"Hmm... What will CAD Managers want to know about most? Installation/Migration Improvements? Mtext and Table Improvements? Oh yeah, how about Dynamic Blocks - those are really cool. They definitely need to know about the new Custom User Interface (CUI) file. Decisions, decisions."
Ellen Finkelstein:
Sneak Preview of AutoCAD® 2006!
"Everything is dynamic in 2006. Do you have large block libraries? You're going to love the new dynamic blocks. The main idea is that you can create one block with many possibilities. So you can create one block to replace many, reducing your block library size significantly."
"You can now easily add numbered and bulleted lists, just like in your word processor. If you need to add an item in the middle of a numbered list, the remaining items renumber themselves automatically."
Richard Binning:
AutoCAD 2006 is just around the corner...Sneak peak!
"I've just been given the go-ahead to share some of the cool new features of the soon to be released AutoCAD 2006. Privately known as "Rio", AutoCAD 2006 has some of the best and most productive features ever to be released by autodesk."

"For the vast majority of the time I have found no need to display it – Heads up, you win!"
AutoCAD 2006 Preview ~ Customisation, Display and Selection Changes
"There are some significant changes to the user interface in AutoCAD 2006."
"There is a nice calculator built into AutoCAD 2006."
AutoCAD 2006 Preview ~ Dynamic Blocks
"Dynamic Blocks are a major new feature in AutoCAD 2006. Simply put they are AutoCAD blocks that respond to user manipulation by altering graphics, shape or form. How they change is controlled by parameters built into the block using a suite of new tools."
AutoCAD 2006 Preview ~ Dimension Arc
"You can now dimension the length of an arc."
Beth Powell
AutoCAD 2006!
"In recent years, the new releases have failed to excite me as much. The 2004 release was a big deal because the interface changed entirely with the tool palettes. The 2005 release made me sigh with some boredom. I have been using the 2006 beta version for a couple of weeks now and must confess that it's exciting again!"
