I've found the real thing. However, it does have limited capacity.
approx 40 IC's and a 5" by 5" board. It is schematic capture, layout
and routing! The best part: it's an actual PADS package from CAD Concepts
who to my knowledge are the king of the field. The next best part: it
is *free*. The add calls it shareware but they decided on freeware after
the add. It is fully functional, just limited capacity. Obviously it is
intended as a teaser for their $1500 product that has very few limits. If
it could fill your needs (I'll bet larger designs could be partitioned and
patched using logical "connectors") call 1-800-554-SALES and ask for the
sharware PADS-PCB. Clever marketing. It suits my design perfectly and
you can bet that if and when I begin making any money on it I'll go for
the top of their line.
