Electronics Design

Tonight (and a few night ago) I was playing around with a couple different schematic capture systems and rolling into board layout and so forth.I started out with Eagle and for some reason that didn't really gel with me for whatever reason. My main frustration was that the wiring layout wasn't at all intuitive. I never really got a simple circuit laid out without me wanting to throw something at the computer.Then I tried out DipTrace and that just worked a whole lot better. Somehow it worked the way I expected it to. Going from the schematic to a board layout wasn't hard either.I think I'll experiment with a few other ones over the next couple of days too. I'll give a fuller writeup as I progress through this bit of experimentation.I'm having fun, and in the end that's what matters, right?  :-)
