Autocad Dummies

Never picked up a dummies before. Really impressed with the way they breakout the non useful technical stuff. A great way to get started. Plenty of info for use later when you need it for reference.

Excellent refresher for past version users

This book is excellent for former users of Autocad 11 - 14. It lets you know what sections you can skip and get down to the newer features that are unfamiliar. This book would be a good guide for those with any CAD background at all.

It is a fun, easy to read reference book

9/7/99I was browsing through AutoCAD 2000 For Dummies in particular Part IV - Having it your way. I was especially interested in some of the 3D features so I started reading this portion of the book. I found the tips and warnings given to be very helpful, clear and to the point. In my opinion, the best part of this book is when the author makes remarks with the new features offered by AutoCAD 2000, like the new 3D orbit, which I consider amazing! This reference book makes it easy to include the new features AutoCAD 2000 has to offer in the day-to-day work without loosing time by having to read one of those huge manuals. It is a fun, easy to read reference book that will help users of AutoCAD to find quick answers. I would say it is definitely a keeper!
