Um, really? I have to confess i haven't played a lot with the digital simulations, but the analoge part seemed ok to me. Which packages did you compare it against?

As for Electronics Workbench... yeah, i really like it too! Whenever you need a quick sim, you can have it working in two minutes.

Electronics Workbench, Protel, Proteus and a heap of others I've long since forgotten .... in some instances you may find that CircuitMaker is ok for anologue sims .... let me assure you, you have been lucky! Most anolog sims in Circuitmaker are so far from realistic it's not worth the time.

Interesting... i liked Protel a lot the time i tried it, but it was way to big (CircuitMaker is happy with about 60mb). I'll probably install it whenever i get the free hd space.

You sound like a Kiwi! ?? Or is it just the influence of Kiwi software.
