Mastercam, v9.1, mill level 3 and lathe entry, sooner or later I will be dragged, kicking and squealing into X4

Along with AutoCAD for drawing review.
Like to use one piece of software but each of the above have their strengths.
Solidworks 2010 for design.
Only manual machines, so no CAM required.

Tell me more about sidewall engraving, sounds interesting. I thought that stuff was molded?
Paper drawings at work, Alibre for my stuff.
Calculator and text editor for programming the 4-axis lathe.
I already filled out and sent back my census.

Edgecam since 1991.
Alibre at home (my machines at home are manual), at work we use Solidworks and there is one seat of Esprit. However, the two ME's are most likely found programming at the control. We do mostly turning and the mill work is simple stuff like tap and drill with facing off if we are milling.
I just fix the machines when they break them.
