RE: How did it all start?
Roger, I interviewed Irwin Jungreis (one of the founders) last fall and started writing a brief history of Revit which I've been meaning to finish. I have to send it around to them for them to finish and flesh out.
You're right - it's a story that deserves telling!
RE: How did it all start?
Hey there,
I remember asking David Conant (one of the original designers) if he still had the original, very first working build of Revit. His answer surprised me in the fact that the "first build" was not what I was expecting at all. (I don't want to let the cat out of the bag.)
The entire story would be great to hear!!
Let' hear it.

Here's a screen shot from a few weeks after we started programming.
RE: How did it all start?
I still have all the CD's from pre-release 1.0, 2.0 and release 1.0 up to 8.0. I installed 1.0 on an old laptop last April 1st for a "preview" at a SCRUG meeting. Let me tell you, they have come a LONG way since then, right Mr. Davis???

Hey Jim,
How about a screen shot of the 1.0 interface?

I will have to reinstall on a machine, but I could do that some time.

Its good to see that you spent your early seed money on programing not on graphic design! ;-)
