Excellent drawing tool

I havent heard a single person not complain about visio not being easy to use. yes indeed it is cumbersome at times and takes way more time to draw something simple. for a while i lived with it until i saw one of my colleague use a tool and his speed of drawing is about 10x faster than mine. at times it is a beauty to just watch him draw diagrams. so i thought,man, i should learn that too. it will help me in long run.
the tool is XCircuit. I downloaded it and am playing with it. it does seem very fast. it is easy to draw what you want. it is more or less how you draw something on a sheet of paper. i strongly recommend people who dont have visio or are fed up with it to try to use xcircuit. it is easy to learn.
 It is not very intuitive at first, but I am sure with a bit of experience it would be a great tool.
