Alternatives to Inkscape, what do you use?

Mostly laser cut designs.
Currently its the pocket universe panels
Photos of the results can be found in this thread.

The current annoying thing I am dealing with is selecting 100s of small object on top of a larger object. Using the Path=>Difference tool. The problem is that you cant do a difference on a series of objects. It seems you have to do it one by one.

I have done this more then a few times !
I also have used Java Script and http://raphaeljs.com/ to generate SVGs files.

I learned all the quick keys (first thing I do when start using a new tool), and I am fast with it. But I hate the experience. I have had to learn so many tricks to get around its gotchas/clumsiness.

I have also heard good things about Rhino3D too. I might have to give it a another look.

That looks amazing and what I am looking for. I am not a MAC user and probably never will be. :frowning:
