Autodesk releases a CAD software version for hobbiests

From hackaday.com: http://hackaday.com/2011/06/10/autodesk-enters-the-hobby-market/

This is pretty old, but better late than never. Autodesk, which makes the industrial and professional CAD software AutoCAD, has released a CAD software for hobbiests. Autdodesk 123D is free and similar to Google Sketchup in some ways, but seems to be more professional. It is geared towards people with CNC machines or 3D printers, as well as anybody who wants the design benefits of CAD for their home projects. I hope to download it sometime and try it out. It is likely good practice for real world use.
