Autodesk Products Retiring on March 14th include AutoCAD 2005

Here is a list of products being retired in mid-March, 2008.

That means that they will no longer be eligible for upgrades, you'd have to buy a whole new seat the next time you want a new version, and new updates/fixes won't be posted on the Autodesk website for them (you'll still be able to find and download existing updates though).
