For a newbie starting out in CAD, what's the best value for software to get first?
I ask about "value" because I figure there is a balancing point between quality of the program and the cost of it. So maybe "free" isn't worth it if there are inexpensive programs to get. What do you guys recommend?

Try Autodesk softwares like AutoCAD/Inventor. They are free of cost (Free Student version). Also the Autodesk student community & GrabCAD is full of tutorial & examples to learn.
Wishing good luck.
Would need to agree with Sudhir Auto desk are really good with giving away there software.
:)
There is also Google sketch up that is a free software.
There is an free option that i would like to hear feedback from. If you can run linux as an operating system there is a opensource alternative called libreCAD.
