LibreCAD is free, and portable still. I liked DS as it was a near 100% clone of AutoCAD. Transition time was seconds rather than minutes. So much so I had to wonder sometimes what package I was in. Then though it got quirky, wouldn't run properly on my Linux installs and so on. The constant wanting to "phone home" and verify registration was annoying but manageable. AutoCAD is also a pita the way it recognises a drawing created in Draftsight as "alien" and won't let you edit solids created in DS. Their loss!
