- Ben,
- I just recently read something on this network concerning PCB software and
- called the company, Protel technology, with great success.
- Their number is 1-800-544-4186. Just tell the person on the other end
- who you are and tell them you are interested in Easytrax. It is shareware
- and really does quite a lot. I am not well versed in it but I am pretty sure
- it will at least get you started. I would send you a copy of what they sent
- me but if you call them you will get all of the information on their other
- software also.
-
- good luck
