[sci.electronics] HELP: finding Schematic design software???'s

grs999910120@stat.appstate.edu (03/20/91)

I really don't know if this the correct group to post this to,
so apologies in advance if I have made an error.

Question: Does anybody know of a good (fairly inexpensive Under
$375 U.S.) graphics/design/??Cad?? program designed ESPECIALLY for 
producing schematics Electronic Schematics.

I have been advised that a program called FutureNet would be the 
best choice for my situation.

Things I am looking for:
1. able to work under MsDOS (ver 4.01)
2. Fairly good resolution (probably VGA) and printing capability
must be above 75DPI (300 dpi would be optimum)
3. Mouse supported.

DOES such an animal exist??

Please E-mail replies to this address as I do not normally monitor
this group.
Thanks in advance...

Hmm.. I know that one exists for the Amiga called Pro-net and Pro-net personal
for 299 and 99 respectively. To be honest they kinda look like IBM ports.
No pull down menus etc. Look to be real good progs. Call Prolific S'ware
at 714-447-8792 and see if my suspicions are true, (port or not).
