Mike, Maybe my response came across wrong, What I was getting at why both routers, I had no problems justifying the Specctra router, but I don't see me spending for the Electra. Agreed that Protel with a less than spectacular router may benefit from partnering with someone else for their bundled offer or just ommiting it altogether. Like you I'm doing this full time, but with the economy having been down loads have been too rollercoatery to spend much when I'm getting by.
Sounds like you have spent some time with the Electra router, care to expound some virtues since I was working and my demo expired long before I had any real time to spend on it.

Hey Altium what a novel idea.....I dont want integrated routers....ever. I can work on two boards at once if one is routing. Wow what a concept...I can really multitask on two PCs > > Mike > > > > > > * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * 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] * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
