Hi man
By far, the best vectorial program is Corel Draw(I hope Xara will beat this beast soon).
No Joke.
I'm on DTP industry for more than 10 years. As designer not as a typist. I worked with almost all vectorial / raster apps - for all kind of projects.
Corel Draw - keep the most manageable workflow. UI is customizable.
Vector tools are strong. Print Preview are strong. Spot colors. Lens effects. PDF export. Scripting suport. Linked text frames. U can do all very quick - on large files - because ...speed is better than AI.
Most peoples don't know that - because they don't like to search or to explore.
Most of them tould me AI is a standard on industry - but they don't know to tell me why - they all hear that and they all believe (whatta ...hmm ..easy manageable society).
But the best featured, comprehensive product is Xara. Feather on vectors (kill bill feature), perfect bevel tools - means ART.
Corel is perfect for DTP, Technical Illustrations, etc.
Xara is for Artists.
( ah .. I forget to tell you - I work a lot on Illustrator ( ..where was the only way ) but I never find something "so special" keep me with..
