Here's my three-minute attempt:
Description: Printed Circuit Board Design Program
Pcb is a handy tool to design printed circuit boards. All coordinate
units are 1/100000 inch. It has a large library of part footprints,
can handle multi-layer boards, and can check the layout for consistency
with design rules and against netlists provided by (separate) schematic
entry software. For details see the manual.
