Re: Help Needed - PCB Software

It's funny how many electronics people are also avid photographers. I shot Nikon film bodies for many years, but sold everything off and switched to Canon when I finally (reluctantly) went digital. Canon's free RAW processing software is superb, and I haven't needed to use anything else except occasional Photoshop.
About JLCPCB, the cost would be about half of Express PCB by the time shipping is included. That's not enough difference for me to abandon a US-made product. Also, and not to get too political, I spend a lot of money every year to choose Western products over Chinese whenever the option is available. I know some people probably think this is foolish, but it's the way I do business. As a manufacturer yourself, I'm sure you can appreciate the importance of patronizing our own.
