So Bill didn't win the Top Gun title.... was his resulting board design functional? Isn't that what really counts? Sure it would be nice to meet all the ideals of a competition and win. But it is hard to justify large amounts of money for someone who is doing double sided, non-high frequency boards. And if you can do high frequency, impedance control designs that work in Protel, all the better. There's a big range of requirements out there... one size does not fit all. duane foster * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * To post a message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] * * To leave this list visit: * http://www.techservinc.com/protelusers/leave.html * * Contact the list manager: * mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] * * Forum Guidelines Rules: * http://www.techservinc.com/protelusers/forumrules.html * * Browse or Search previous postings: * http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED] * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
