Does anybody know of any mapping programs finished or close to being finished
that are comparible to MapGrafix?
I have already checked out zillions (it seems) of programs that are toyish in
nature.  Most are suitable for people wanting to do stuff like map a pizza
delivery route but I am looking for programs of high caliber:

vector based
built in database support
able to communicate with a wide variety of file formats
map merging
multiple layers
good interface
plotter and digitizer support
32 bit clean

Any info appreciated.
Thanks
Ant Man!
