It is quite normal to not care about software you don't use. I don't care about what Instagram is doing, for instance.

I'd care a lot more about BicsCAD if they did something about their lousy user interface and got serious about real marketing in the US.
I expect that new cloud based CAD will cause a race to the bottom rather than solving the many real world problems that still aren't solved in CADCAM. My understanding is that venture capitalists consider CADCAM to be a solved problem and that there is no VC money available to solve the real world problems that haven't been addressed in decades.
I've never seen the CAD market such bad shape.
