AutoCAD Civil 3D 2010 New Interface... How it looks and What I can do with it!!!

Hi everybody!!!... I saw last Friday March 27, a really good webcast hosted by Lucy Huhns (Autodesk Technical Specialist) with Jerry Bartels (Autodesk Technical Specialist) as a guest presenter, and they were talking and showing the New Interface of Civil 3D 2010, the presentation runs for an hours, but I can guarantee you that it's worth your time. As usual they did a great job, so just in case if you missed here it's a link to it, Introducing the New Interface in AutoCAD Civil 3D.
