brl-cad has been around since the 1970's... native to *nix... I've not 
gotten any further than installing it and trying a couple of simple 
things.  Biggish learning curve, lots of features.

Art of Illusion (AOI) is rather new, I've not gotten further than 
browsing their web site.

What are you trying to do... generate a pretty picture?  An STL file?  A 
  tool path for a CNC mill?  A 3D animated cartoon?
