For small boards, I have a program called CAMDOS that seems to work quite
well. It does not have autorouting capability, but then again for small
boards ... :). I don't recall the exact limitations but IIRC, standard bus
boards were no problem.

Sometime last month there was a discussion here about members' preferred PCB
layout software - most of which I appear to have missed thanks to my ISP
having problems....
Anyway, what came of that discussion and what were the recommendations for a
good free package?
Personally I've been using the DOS based "Easy PCB" for about 10 years now
(does that make this on topic? <grin>) but would "prefer" to switch to a
Win95 based package since I don't have a Linux box up and running yet. I've
got "Eagle CAD v3.55r3" which is great, but the limitation on board size
makes it impossible for me to use it for the project I'm playing with at the
moment. :-(
TTFN - Pete.
