Cliff,

Kelly beat me to the punch! I was just looking for the contact data for
the PDQ product, as I have used it for years. My price was triple back
then and was such a good purchase at that! I highly recommend the
PDQ-Pads tool for greatly boosting the tedious task of padstack
generation. It's good, bullet-proof code that does exactly what it is
supposed to. You can hammer out hundreds of padstacks in a day!!!

Say, Kelly, while I got you on the horn, what's the status of your board
density estimator? Does it handle the newer SMT packages now (TSOPs &
BGAs)? I recall that as being another one of your tools I liked very
well and used often. Send your web page address, also, if you have one.
