Sorry to post, but mail bounced. Clarification about OrCAD - there are two separate products: SDT, the schematic capture program, and PCB, the router. PCB includes an autorouter. SDT produces netlists in a variety of formats, not just for PCB, but obviously the two programs were designed for each other. SDT is $495, PCB $1495. IMHO the latter is too expensive. My one line review is that OrCAD probably makes the best PC CAD software, but that is not praise of boundless magnitude. -- Rainer M. Malzbender Technology recapitulates biology.
