[sdiy] PCB houses

[Limor]

I use Advanced circuits (4pcb.com) exclusively for my kits. The boards 
are fairly priced if you're making a bunch, and the quality is top-notch 
which is the most important thing for me. Made in warm, sunny Boulder 
Colorado. They have a barebonespcb.com cheap-o 2-sided overnight thingy too.
