Circuit design software

I've been trying out DesignWorks Lite circuit design software for a couple weeks
now. I like it pretty well overall and need to register for $40 within 10 days
or so. But I was wondering if any of you have recommendations of other cheap
software I should try before I register DesignWorks?

    Can't beat the price to try it out. I used it to create a board for a
    Basic Stamp 2sx project, then had the board done by CustomPCB out of
    Malaysia. Worked perfectly--beginners luck, I suppose.

    Try AutoTRAX EDA Version 1.21 PCB design suite is totally free
    with no limits and can be download now from www.autotraxEDA.com

    I have downloaded it but have not tried it yet. They also have a
    yahoo group you may like to look at first.

    Cheers

    Thanks a lot for the recommendation. I've been trying it out for a few evenings
    now. I like it just as well as DesignworksLite. Seems to do everything that
    does, the default library of IC devices is larger, and it seems to me easier to
    construct new devices. And the price (free) is certainly right.

    Thanks again.

    Hi all,

    > > www.expesspcb.com

    Does anyone know of/have used a similar service to ExpressPCB.com in the UK?
    express pcb offer a very useful service and if it wasn't for the time it
    would take to ship accross the pond (not their fault I know), I'd use
    them...


    Cheers
