Quote History Quoted:Have you ever used CAD?
If not, trying to learn something, regardless of cost, is going to be a bit more difficult than using paper and a calculator.
I've been using CAD software since '94. Watching people step into it can sometimes be painful.

Oh, man, I can so second this. The learning curve for any CAD, even the "user friendly" kinds, is why it took me so, so, SO long to take the plunge. I still didn't go all the way to the big programs, but I had to eventually move to CAD for landscape design, and of course the first image paid for the program.
But taking two weeks to figure out how to draw three boxes is pretty much how painful it was.
I'm not trying to discourage OP, but just sayin that I've never seen a program that has hardly any intuitive capability built in, so plan some "fussing and cussing" hours into the design process.
