If you've already decided on Mentor's schematic editor then you would probably
do well to limit your choices to Mentor and Synopsys.  However, if you're
not limited to their schematic editor, then you might wish to look at Viewlogic's
new VHDL simulator.  The Synopsys->Viewlogic path is very good, better than
the Synopsys->Mentor.  Viewlogic also has the advantage of having just aquired
Vantage Systems, who supposedly have the best _compiled_ VHDL simulator.
