[time-nuts] Schematic capture, anyone?

[John Ackermann N8UR]

There are a bunch of choices, some free and some limited to working with 
a certain PCB shop, but I like Eagle (http://www.cadsoftusa.com) 
because, among other things, it's cross-platform running on Windows, 
Mac, and Linux (I use the Linux version).  There's a free version and a 
couple of steps of paid versions which allow larger board sizes and more 
layers.
