I'll chirp in for Zuken-Redac's Cadstar.  I've heard from so many others that
Cadstar is short on this feature or that BUT for the type of boards we do, it's
fine.  I'm still learning about alot of the features it offers.  (And hopefully
tomorrow I'll understand another one of it's quirks.)  That's pretty much why I
didn't say anything earlier.  Money is of prime importance here and there's no
way my company would lay out the kind of cash some of these heavy-hitters are
charging.  So we slog along - relatively content and learning more and more all
the time.

My comments, intelligent or otherwise, are my own and not necessarily those
shared by my employer.
