Diptrace still recommended?

I've looked for Diptrace in the Parallax site and had difficulty figuring out where it was. I had to do a Google search to find it!

I'm getting ready to move away from Express PCB. It's been nice for cheap/fast boards, but with the Propeller II nearly in our hands, I'm probably going to need a bit more layout horsepower.

Is the general consensus still that DipTrace is the best for the money or has something better edged it out?

recommendations?

    Diptrace is a good package.All depends on the amount of holes and layers you want to do.
    Designspark is also a good free package.
    Kicad.OrCad,Eagle..the list goes on.
