EAGLE alternative - larger boards

Some (shudder) like ExpressPCB

;D that's funny - it took me a while to develop a like for ExpressPCB myself - it's so simple it sorta "grows" on you. I have used AutoCAD for more years than I like to count... v2.62 was where I started. I played around with ExpressPCB and ExpressSCH some, decided "that's no good" and moved on to Eagle and KiCAD. A buddy wanted me to use ExpressSCH so we could work on a schematic together.

As I've used Express more - I find it does most of what I need/want in a PCB layout package for toner transfer. Each time I find something I want that ExpressPCB doesn't do, I pop over to the yahoo users group and ask. It usually gets an answer on where I missed and it does do what I want. If it doesn't do it, there is a "work around".

ExpressPCB is NOT for CNC milling, gerber files, or autorouting. For just a basic Schematic/PCB layout tool for toner transfer etching - it actually works pretty good. The printer does require the ability to mirror a print since ExpressPCB does not give that option.
