Whole lots of wrong information there.

I absolutely love Solidworks, but it is hardly the most powerful program if money is no concern. Not even close. It's bigger brother, CATIA is far more powerful but costs way the fuck more and is a mess in terms of interface and usability.

And I have no idea where you got $100k out of, but that's ridiculously off. There are a ton of modules to pick from and yearly licensing fees, but a base package starts at roughly $3k and goes up to around $15k.
