Intense! SolidWorks World Day Two is always the craziest. Announcements, interview, lots of technical sessions and the off-site event that probably has people feeling a little shaky the next morning. We’ve got the highlights for ya and guess what… there’s one more day to go!

HP has delivered up the new HP Z1 line, a beefy new all-in-one workstation with 27 inches of IPS display catered toward the 3D and graphics professional. The slightly chunky (yet low profile) computer looks much like a thick monitor, sports a 2560 x 1440, IPS display, Xeon (i3 or E3) processor and options for NVIDIA GPUs, Quadro 500M on the Entry level rigs up to the Q4000M on the high end. It starts at $1899 and will be available to rock your desktop early April.

Day one at SolidWorks World 2012. If there was such a thing as a firehose of flaming CAD vodka, this would be it. Attendees have been drenched with inspiration in the keynote, getting their geek on in the tech sessions and livin’ it up at the evening parties. One product, 5,300+ people, insanity. We caught the highlight for you right here.

Robots!! YES. You’ll see some like that cute little guy up above at SolidWorks World 2012. We’re on the scene at SolidWorks World and the show is in full effect with the Welcome Recpetion kicking things off Sunday night in the Partner Pavilion. We’re taking loads of video as well and will be blasting coverage at you each day. This chunk o’ footage gives you a quick taste of the sites you’ll see at the event where 5,650 people from 33 countries are getting their geek on. Here’s a look.

CAM Mania is going down at SolidWorks World 2012 in the HSMWorks booth #313. If you recall, HSMWorks is the makers of the free CAM solution for SolidWorks, HSMXpress. They’ll be showing the CAM features integrated directly into the SolidWorks interface. And, you’ll definitely want to take the CAM Mania challenge with first prize being an HP Elitebook Mobile Workstation. NICE. Here are the details.
