I've been using SketchUp recently to draw my house but I don't like the idea of being locked into a proprietary file format for something as important as this :-)
I started a search for a converter from SketchUp (or kmz since that's the only export format allowed in the free version of SketchUp)... nothing really a lot of garbage links until I figured out that kmz is sort of like Collada.
This lead me to the Collada import/export to Blender which is another free (really free as in open source) 3d editor.
I'm guessing with this information, I'll be able to simply convert this drawing into a collada file (something about .dae) and then import to blender using this plugin and then export it to whatever formats blender supports which will certainly be better than what the SketchUp free supports.
Update here's a link:
