From what I read in a recent CADENCE magazine article INVENTOR will be a replacement for MECHANICAL DESKTOP which runs on top of AUTOCAD. The idea is that AUTOCAD 's basic engine is getting a bit old, and that the INVENTOR engine was designed from the ground up to do 3D Modelling.

AUTOCAD will not dissapear, but supposedly MECHANICAL DESKTOP will only have 2 more versions and then INVENTOR will be the platform for 3D Parametric Modelling.

Currently I teach Mechanical DEsktop to my students, and am fond of both MDT and INVENTOR. I think that next year we will be teaching INVENTOR exclusively. If I can find some good materials to use in class to help teach it that is.
