Ian, We took a poll and Protel is number two in worldwide installations (behind PADS).
We have no information if Protel is gaining or losing seats, we just know they are the second most popular CAD tool in the EDA industry. I just wish they would show up at more trade shows and get more exposure. The industry needs competition. When you're working with the World Standards organizations is best to cover to multitudes and not the big guys who can afford to purchase $100,000 workstations (they are the minority).

Tom, Why is your company including Protel in its library offerings? Are you detecting a rising presence in the market or what? Protel has hardly been considered a significant player in the US in the past. Stronger in Aust/NZ and Europe and some fairly good penetration in Asia I think (not sure about what percentage is legit).
