Try PADS-PCB. It is available as a fully working demo. It
is only limited in the size of the design that it will handle.
No not than two board layers and about 20 IC's. It has a
schematic capture editor, a board layout editor, an auto-router,
and a large parts library. You can get it from Simtel20.
