Hello, Just one world to talk about the software i am currently using : TARGET 3001. After testing most of other soft, I am now sure that is is the best in te= rm of simplicity/performance. Even if it has not the same quality/complexity as ORCAD, for many designs= it is the right choice.

So the current potential lineup I have (and need to evaluate) is: - Performance EDA - PC Logic - gEDA And still in the running is: - Eagle (if I want to cough up the $$$). BTW, the full-blown Eagle pro version should import .sch files I already have from the light/freeware version, right? So if I decided to go with Eagle pro, why would I need the schematic editor for $400? Couldn't I just use the schematic editor in the light version?
