SAAS! "software as a service" and "storage as a service"
Earlier this week, my wife called on me for advice. It seems she is using her little Acer 4GB Ram, 320GB HDD Chromebook, that she dearly loves for its portability, for redesigning the layout of some rooms in our church. Table, chair, stand placement, aisles and the like.

She had started with a free program on the Chromebook, draw.io or something like that, but needed more power and had then moved on to the free version of Autodesk360. Knowing I used Autocad she thought I could answer some questions. Well I did, and in doing so, found out that Autodesk on the Google Chrome System has a price schedule like this.

a stunted, limited, totally minimized free version - (well free!)
1 month unrestricted (of better more complete version) use- $5
1 year unrestricted use- $50.
1 year unrestricted of best super version- $99.

SaaS!
