Solid Program, Too Bad its Classic Mode Only

I've been using CADmover for years and while there are other ways of moving data around - using filters within your CAD package or art package, for example. The CADmover translations (for the versions supported) are solid and reliable.
My chief complaint is that it has not been ported to OSX. This is the only application that I find I need on occasion that requires me to boot into Classic.
We routinely use this to do solid translations to and from Adobe Illustrator to DWG, DXF and IGS formats. While we have many high-end CAD packages available, we still rely on CADmover for a good translation - despite the need to boot classic.
Support is lackluster at best, though.

The price is now $329, and there is a lite version for $199 that converts the most common CAD formats.
CADMover opens and saves CAD files. It is not a CAD program, but a coversion program. We use it to translate CAD files of cutting dies for product packages so we can fit the graphics to the die in Adobe Illustrator.
Some limitations are not with CADMover, but with the input file format. DXF does not have units in the file. CGM comes in as 1 layer. IGS is good, with the size accurate and layers.
There is nothing else like CADmover, so I can't say the price is unreasonable.
