I like their deal, it's the best I have found so far for what I want. The only remaining concern I need to resolve before I settle on them as the recipient of my gerbers is the following: back in early 2007 DJ has posted the following on this list: > protoexpress auto-adds copper thieving, which would mess up my > isolation gaps (I've emailed them asking about it). Is copper thieving the trick whereby the fab adds little isolated copper squares in places where the customer's gerbers call for a complete clearing? Does DJ or anyone else here know if protoexpress still does that on their "no touch" service or not? My PCB has a section where the DSL circuit comes in from the phone company - as that's basically a phone line that can potentially have all kinds of nastiness on it, I prefer to have good isolation - hence copper thieving (if I understand the term correctly) would be undesirable in that area.
