Recently there has been mention/discussion of several free PCB layout programs and inexpensive board suppliers.  Out of curiosity, I've compiled the following list to make them easier to find (please feel free to add to the list):

Target 3001:

Kicad:
http://kicad.sourceforge.net/wiki/Main_Page

Eagle:

Designspark:

Diptrace:

Itead:
http://iteadstudio.com/store/index.php?cPath=19_20

FAR Circuits:

No connection with any of them - I use a 1988 version of OrCAD - but it's no longer available, and the current product isn't free.
