Default Learning CAD

This post is not about which is the Best CAD, it is about learning CAD.

Due to a cast on my Right foot for the next 9 weeks or so, I thought I might
try my hand at learning CAD. My Shop is off-limits with a cast and crutches.

I took a drafting course in High School back about 1964, but don't remember
much. As I recall, the big thing is just to do, start simple, and work to
complex, but most important just draft.

I purchased a 'learning to draft' book from Amazon a few years ago after one
of this NG Lo-o-ng CAD debates.

So my question, does anyone have a suggestion as to learning TurboCAD,
CADopia (intelliCAD?), DesignCAD, and so forth. Looking for WEB sites,
Forums, or just simple projects to learn from. As I figure it, the CAD
program with the most help for me to learn on my own, will be the most
useful program, so I will buy that program.

TIA
Phil
