CNC software newbie questions

I am hoping to get some help from the group on this one. Getting to the point that I am considering a small CNC for the shop. Starting to do some homework on the subject, and getting familiar with the software is one of the first things I would like to fiddle with. I have ZERO experience with any CNC equipment, but have moderate time with computers and I do my own blueprints in Corel Draw so I at least have some familiarity with co-ordinates, etc. When my mind was younger and time was not so valueble, I bought AutoCAD and went thru some tutorials with it... but that has faded from memory. I fully understand that each program has its own uniqueness, but I would like to learn on something that is not outdated, so that is where I need some guidance. Can anyone point me to some outlets and information sources? Thanks in advance, ryan
