I've been fortunate to have access to Orcad/Allegro and then Altium for the
time i've been doing this stuff professionally, but if that ever stops I
would take a serious look at Kicad. Circuit Studio would also be very
tempting since the Altium way (and all its key combos) are now part of my
muscle memory. Have also heard good things about diptrace from people I
respect.
