I am looking for a viewer for Macintosh OSX 10.7 to open and view .igs, .stp and .dwg.

I have eDrawings from SolidWorks. It will open .dwg and also everything created in SolidWorks that is export as an "eDrawings" format but it will not open .igs and .stp.

I also have TurboCAD for Mac and it's "OK" but it will not always open everything. It's hit or miss. Just wondering if there is anything else out there?

I think with the large numbers of Windows users in the manufacturing, engineering industries, switching over to Mac someone coud sell quite a few seats of a viewer app in the $100 - $200 range. .igs, .stp and .dwg are the most frequently exported from CAD programs such as SolidWorks, AutoCad, Inventor and ProEngineer.
