Which app comes close to MacDraw? I am not looking at Illustrator (too big, too complex), but just a drawing app with which I can draw some simple 2D things like how to replace things in the living room f.i.

Thanks.

Not exactly what you're looking for but Gimp is a free Photoshop-like application that could be used to do the job. Of course you'll need to install Fink and become acquainted with the Unix side of OS X if you're not already.

See it here:

I think the OP was looking for a vector program. The closest thing to MacDraw is probably EazyDraw. Not free, but a great little app for the price.

Edit: There's also MS Expression, which is surprisingly non-sucky.

I believe you're right. That's why I called it out as 'not exactly what you're looking for.'

The price hit the request on the head so I figured it was a viable option regardless.

try this:

naturally, I'd recommend Illustrator, but I understand your dilemma...

Be careful if you want to get stuff printed though- make sure it can export to a decent format.

god help me for pushing a microCrap product but
Expressions3 - free to everyone and actually not the worst program in the world - of course it wasn't actually written by MS...

Thanks. It's called Expression, btw.
And it's from Micro$oft...
But anyway, it's free.

Found a nice program (but not free though): iDraw http://www.macpoweruser.com/idraw/index.html

Help doesn't seem to work though.
