and costs.  this will give you an idea.

<snip>
CATIA and SolidWorks are both feature-based, dimension-driven solid modelers 
running on Intel/Windows systems. They even look the same - at least 
superficially - employing Windows look and feel with menus, button bars, and 
graphical feature and assembly trees. Both are owned by the same company. Yet 
CATIA sells for $16,500 (2001 average) vs. $4,995 for SolidWorks. What do you 
get for the higher price?

Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of DOS,
and danced the skies on Linux silvered wings.
