Tsien Boardmaker was produced by the chap who originally wrote EasyPC. Tsien went under some years ago. > Is Pulsonix any good - is it a development of Zukens' Cadstar? I find it excellent! I should say that I'm biased as I helped test it and lots of my suggestions have been incorporated in the product. I've been testing the new Version 2 for the last few months which has just been released. Apart from that, I have no connection with Pulsonix. It's nothing to do with Cadstar - it was written from scratch in C++ as a Windows application. Download the working demo (100 pin limit) and try it: http://www.pulsonix.com Leon -- Leon Heller, G1HSM leon_heller@hotmail.com http://www.geocities.com/leon_heller
