  No harder than aligning to drill a toner transfer board after etching, 
which isn't that difficult..  You just align to two holes on opposite 
corners and you're done.

  Why drill anyway?  Surface mount your dips and everything else.  I 
have a driller, and still it's sit around unused for a long time.  It's 
simply better to advance how you lay out the boards to where you rarely 
even need a hole, smt pads for dips are easy to lay out.  You don't 
actually have to have holes through most boards at all, things work just 
fine with the dip leads not going through holes etc.
