Everyone has their favorite pcb cad program. It all depends on your
end use and how deep your pocket is. Pulsonix is a good cjoice for the
rich hobbyist or businesses who can "write off" the costs.

After looking at quite a few over the last 20 years, I've found that
DIPTRACE is a great product and excellent money value for the
hobbyist. The free version is only limited by the number of pins (250)
and the number of layers (2). All other functions including gerber
output and board size are enabled.

It is definitely worht checkong out.
