Me too!  My last board was a quickie - two pushbutton pads, two headers (an 8
& a 10 pin) and 6 LED's.  Double sided - took me maybe two hours.  I let the
autorouter handle most of it.  It was a modification for a customer - they
needed a display that can be seen in sunlight.  AlGaAs displays under their
filter aren't quite bright enough either.  Oh well - maybe next time.

Thought for the day:
