[sdiy] PCB/Schematic software

I use microsoft paint to lay boards out with. Its on every pc everywhere, and I can design boards at work whilst pretending to do something less constructive.

Okay... I'll admit that this is beyond me... So I'll ask...

David, how the *hell* does one lay out a circuit in Excel?  Is this for drawing schematics or laying out PC boards?  I'm getting dizzy just thinking about using the same tool as I use to do my taxes.
