"NBS Chorus is the future. It's quick and easy to use and has all of the functionality I need. The fact that you can edit the spec in Revit is very powerful as it reduced the chances of contradictory information in the model or specification...and it bridges the gap between Mac and PC, which could be the holy grail!"
