These guys have EDA tools that run on Linux. http://www.intercept.com/
I realize its easier for a Unix code base to be ported to Linux, so I'm not thinking Protel is going to go to Linux anytime soon. Although it seems Kylix could be a plausible platform to get onto Linux, since they are using Delphi for code base. It seems that a Linux port would be strategically advantageous. Though I must use M$ as an employee, I'm switching to Linux at home. Any future evaluations for software will include Linux as a factor. VMware is a bridge... right now it's 'great I can run both OS'... but in the not too distant future you'll be wondering why you have to pay the M$ tax to run one program plus pay for VMware... off the soapbox duane Matt Daggett wrote: > Has anyone had any issues running Protel under VMware? > > I am getting ready to migrate my machine from native Win2K to Linux and use > Win2k under VMware for my windows applications. <snip> <snip> although I use the Linux side more than the Win side and protel at the moment, I have spent a couple days pretty much straight in Win and Protel, and it has been the smoothest sailing with Windows and/or Protel I've ever experienced. <snip> so I did it the old Unix way.
