Interesting... it has been impossible to get a consensus about which software package(s) are "industry standard". However, Manpower.com lists two on their "skills" list, OrCAD and Eagle.
Drat, Dip Trace has been really easy to use...
OrCAD is out of the ballpark on cost. No way I can afford it.
Eagle has the free and cheaper versions, and has a lot of users of those cheap and free versions.
Gosh darn it, I like Dip Trace!
