  I guess, but that just changes the problem from being size and
layers to laying my hands on $399 that I can devote to this.  This is
just hobby and learning for me.  If I had someone to bankroll me, or
if I wanted to use the hacks out there that would break eagles
licensing, I could get around it.  But given my budget constraints and
my not wanting to break the law, I choose to use a free program.
  I was not telling everyone in the world to use it, and I was not
claiming it solved everyone else's problems, I was saying there is
another solution for those who want to try.  I'm kind of concerned
that you appear to be beating me down for talking about the
possibility of using something other than eagle.
