awesome!

Pros: I have never used any type of architecture program before, but the video tutorials made learning easy. There are tutorials for everything from laying walls and navigating the animated walk-through and fly-around, to adding lighting and creating complex decks. You can fully customize furniture from within the program and you don't need AutoCAD to create your own objects. Everything is simple drag-and-drop; very easy to use. The 3D View looks amazing, in my opinion. I did my own house with this program and it totally feels like you're there.

Cons: If you add lots of furniture and complex 3D objects, it takes a long time to render the 3D animation view. (But you don't have to keep the 3D View open.) Also, you can add/remove floors, so supposedly you can create floor cutouts, but I haven't found out how to remove ceilings, which you would also need for it.
