    Hi all,
    I've been following the dialog on FEMM Vs Commercial code. I've had FEMM for
    nearly two years now. I also use MAXWELL from Ansoft. And I fully agree with
    Keith on all counts. His point about the adaptive meshing, automated boundary
    condition application, parametric features, Post Processor calculator -
    performing Div, Curl, Grad operations on vectors etc being available in
    Commercial code is right. But then, I've never felt handicapped with FEMM.
    There is always a way out to get the same result from FEMM !!!

    The question is "How much can you squeeze out of a FREEWARE ...?"
    Good job Dave. Hats off to you !!

    Prem Kumar, C
