I started in Tango way-back and then moved into P-CAD (Accel). When Altium came along I saw the writing on the wall and got involved in P99SE as well. I have ridden the P-CAD side to its terminal version in 2006, and the P99SE side up through DXP to Altium Designer 6. The reason I listen to this forum is that I still use P99SE from time to time, and like to know there is a group who can answer questions if I need them. As I only use P99SE from time to time I don't often chime in about the tool as others would probably know better. I do know a lot about PCBs in general, and when such a question comes up I would be glad to chime in. I'm just grateful this group is here.
