I was very proud to pick up this award on behalf of my colleagues and the DesignSpark Community and extend my thanks to all of you who have supported DesignSpark PCB since its launch!!!

This program is awesome by any standard! I was skeptical at first because of the time investment learning and building schematic and PCB parts. I soon realized that there was only one way to know if the program would deliver as promised. Do it! I'm happy to report I have laid-out two PCB's (really one - twice with updates/corrections) without a hitch!!! Didn't hear any complaints from the board house at all. My boards just showed up perfect. Great program and lots of cool PCB editing features but you have to explore a little to learn them all. This program is more than a bargain for free. Thanks Designspark!
