Thanks Gary - 

We are using Altium Designer 6.7, ProCAD for some really old legacy boards
that we are converting to Altium, Solidworks for 3D mechanical and AutoCAD
for 2D drafting, ICEPACK for thermal simulation, and COSMOS Geostar for
vibration analysis... 


Sounds like you have a pretty good size group there... 

Best regards,

Here at Micron, there are 6-8 layout designers using Mentor Expedition,
6-8 using Cadence Allegro, and 4-5 using PCAD / transitioning to AD6.
There are also a couple of PADS licenses around, and I suspect if you
looked hard enough, you'd find a seat of just about everything else....
