I use ExpressPCB all the time for quick, easy boards. Of course you don't have all the bells and whistles. But if your careful, I find it a cheap easy solution for simple boards and low production. 

The standard libraries work for most application.

Greetings,

I have an engineer who wants to use something like
ExpressPCB or PCB123 or FreePCB to design
easy-cheesy test boards.

Does anyone have experience with any of these
packages? best libraries? hidden "gotchas"?

I hate to do a long evaluation process before he dives
headfirst into something, so I thought I'd ask ya...

Jack
