Take a look at DC-CAD (Design Computation) in NJ.  OrCad is excellent
if you have the bucks.  Wintek is pretty bad.

Try Express Circuits 1-800-426-5396 for a board shop- quality is top
drawer, and their prices are good, too.  They always beat R&D Circuits
and Avanti every time I get a quote.

I am not affiliated with any of these folks, though I use Express and
DC-CAD myself.
