MacDraw is a discontinued vector graphics drawing application released along with the first Apple Macintosh systems in 19841. MacDraw was one of the first WYSIWYG drawing programs that could be used in collaboration with MacWrite. It was eventually adapted by Claris and, in the early 1990s, MacDraw Pro was released with color support. MacDraw was the vector-based cousin of MacPaint. In the preface of the third edition of Introduction to Algorithms, the authors make an emphatic plea for the creation of an OS X-compatible version of MacDraw Pro.

The magazine approved of its continued "elegant simplicity" and much faster speed, but wished for a better object library, non-opaque fill modes, and .pict version 2 support. Noting that "Now $395, the price of MacDraw II has also accelerated quite a bit", the magazine concluded that "it doesn't take advantage of all the power that the Mac II has to offer, especially when it comes to color".
