Corel Draw for Linux is in my opinion not useable.
We have bought it, and it has so many bugs it's a joke. The only things
it is worth for, is to open .cdr files and convert them to something
readable in other Linux packages, e.g. .dxf. So, if you need 2D
drafting, better look somewhere else. IMHO Varicad is currently the best
package for Linux as it does 3D and 2D, and won't cost you a fortune
(even though I think my wife would rather spend the money on furniture
than on CAD packages :-) )
HP's ME10 is not available anymore I think.
