They produce their version of IntelliCAD in Turkish and English, however their web site is only available in Turkish!.

There is no better way of getting support than by asking someone that has already had and solved your problem. I strongly advise that you find a Newsreader and subscribe to alt.cad.intellicad

CAD CHAT is a group of Discussion Forums for the CAD Community. It includes Autodesk, Bentley, CADKEY, Graphsoft, ISMI, IntelliCAD, Robert McNeel & Associates, SolidWorks and a General Community chat area.
Unlike alt.cad.acad which can be dealt with off line, you need to be on line for this group. This is great because due to security restrictions at work I can't get to alt.cad.acad & alt.cad.intellicad.
