First time poster here.
I started with VeriBest 98 then on to Mentor Expedition, now I use Pads and Cadence. They both have thier own pros and cons, but I prefer Pads over all.
I plot out the gerbers, then use Cam350 to convert the fab and assembly to .dxf. I then import them into AutoCad to create my assembly drawings.
I have designed boards ranging from 2 sided "do nothings" to dual processor mother boards for Compaq. Rapid 5, Texas Instuments....blah blah blah....
