IMSI/Design To Offer MecSoft's 3D CAM Solutions For TurboCAD

NOVATO, Calif., August 10, 2010 - IMSI/Design®, the developer of the #1 best-selling
CAD in retail, TurboCAD, announced today that it will begin distributing MecSoft's
line of VisualMILL Computer Aided Machining (CAM) titles.

"MecSoft has a long-standing reputation of delivering affordable and reliable CAM to
the CNC machining industry, and we felt the combination of the two companies'
products was a natural solution," stated Bob Mayer, COO of IMSI/Design.
"IMSI/Design will continue to offer our popular 2 ½ D CAM Plug-in to TurboCAD, while
the VisualMILL products round out our offerings with a true 3D CAM solution our
customers can use with TurboCAD Professional.

"Our customers have been asking for a true 3D CAM solution to complement our popular
2.5D CAM offering," stated Bob Mayer, COO of IMSI/Design. "A TurboCAD/VisualMILL
solution delivers all the CNC machining power for tens of thousands of dollars less
than competing solutions. It's really quite significant."

Along with the 2 ½ axis and hole making features, VisualMILL Standard's key milling
strategies include the valuable 3 Axis Milling methods such as Horizontal Roughing,
Parallel and Horizontal Finishing, and Radial and Spiral Machining. Other features
include integrated Toolpath Simulation and a comprehensive Post Processor.

additional $1,000. TurboCAD Professional costs $1,295.
