Original CAD code in the wild?

Well, not quite what you're asking about, I think (it sounds like you're
interested in MechE CAD, not EE, even though SPICE was mentioned), but the
original Stanford SUDS is still available, I think.

Is that a plaint ('how come we don't do software'), or a query ('where is
software discussed')? If the latter, it tends to be system specific, from
what I've seen - e.g. there's 'TUHS' for Unix, "its-hackers" for ITS, etc.
