ok well I need to make a quick little floor plan of a restaraunt for my business class but I dont know what software to use. Anybody know what I should buy?

I have never used it before, but I think TurboCAD is a cheap CAD software. There is a free trial on their site.

thanks guys. I found this really good program called Smart Draw and it did the job. I would have used 3ds or auto cad but I need tables and stuff aswell.

Use 3DHomeArchitect. It's easy as hell to use, and is awesome. It's got furniture and stuff too. It's made by Broderbund (sp?) free trial download too. And, the full version is like $40-50

whatevre you do DONT use, Total 3D Home. its got sooo many glitches its not funny, like it adds random walls and when you change views it raises all the furniture into the AIR!!!! so you have to change it all back individually onto the ground, which is a pain in tha assss.
