Here we are, many things about Protel's legacy so if i were to have no choice,then i would get into Linux and download OpenSource pcb software which is already in working version that is producing finished assembled SMD board by the software author,there is at least 3 O/source pcb design package on Linux Sourceforge.The fact for us here is that with the kind of corparate digital world we live in,and in addition to sucking but expansive package,its time to use open source PCB and EDA tools and even thought i am a OrCAD 9.2 user,i have my mind set on learning of the opew source EDA tools from Linux when i got my own broadband.
