Jeff, I think you are mistaken about the cost. Their "design suites" are considerably less. Also, on the new version the "Architecture" has most of the structural capabilities installed. Not sure about the "systems" though and it is only one support payment per year which yes, is a lot.

I looked for a package price and just saw the 3 individual modules listed all at the same price. The architecture module perhaps has some structural analysis capability I am not sure. The structural module though seemed quite comprehensive, something a structural engineer could use for specs that are easily incorporated into the project. Perhaps not incorporated but as part of the project in a different location. Collaboration is a big part of the software. Not sure. I can not afford it either way but it does seem like an amazing piece of software.
