Schematics and PCB design software for Linux

Kari · 2nd January 2005, 12:17 AM

Hi,
as i have finally got enough of Bill Gates **** OS i've installed Gentoo Linux. I do still dualboot until i get a good replacement for schematics/pcb software. It has to be Linux ONLY software. I'm currently looking at eagle (http://www.cadsoft.de) however i find their pricing quite confusing. If i buy it in Europe it will cost me 464 + 464 EUR, however in the US they sell it for 399 + 399USD? The difference is huge!

So i was wondering if anyone out there has any recommendations?

Best regards,

Kari

Circuit Maker Student does work in WinE, but I find it buggy as soon as you hit "Simulate".
