My tip for rookies or anyone using AutoCAD is: don't. It is inferior to Inventor in several respects. The reason is still used in the industry is because the industry does not keep up with modern times. The most complicated piece of electronic hardware found in many businesses is the thing they use to run credit cards, and they just got that only about a year or two ago. Computers are still a very new thing for a lot of older folks out there. A lot of the people who ventured into computers when AutoCAD was the latest greatest thing simply don't know there is anything better or are too stubborn to try anything else. AutoCAD is an archaic piece of software with a catchy name and it stuck. People don't realize that we have moved on. Inventor is much more suited to doing just about anything that's not 2d, but the industry hasn't discovered that yet. Also, I find it a nightmare to do anything in AutoCAD, but I think a competent 8 year old could manage Inventor just fine.
