![]() Oh, how about storing the design files in some documented format? I've looked at the gEDA suite and found it to be kind of a mess, probably because it's a disparate tools bundled together. I do spend most of my design time on Windows. I tend to run on a bunch of different platforms, so ideally I want something that runs on Windows, OS/X, and Linux so whereever I am, I can work on a project. I could probably spend many paragraphs on what I consider to be broken in Eagle (parts management, what's that?), but I'd rather discuss what might be better. Well, I think that recent events pretty much rule out any focus for Altium on that segment of the market, so what now? Like most of us low enders, I've been using Eagle for several years (the non-profit license, which is still limited, but less limited than the free versions). ![]() I've always hoped they would release a low cost version with just schematic capture/PCB and clean up the whole low end of the market. For a couple years I've watched the little videos on the Altium web site and concluded that these guys have put a lot of thought into how a CAD/EDA package should work.
