Good point. How much control does Protel have over pcbmarketplace.com? If
it is as little as the control we have over Protel (or any other non-captive
supplier) and it's direction, then I would be very hesitant to rely on the
Protel/pcbmarketplace.com combination to serve my needs well, in the long
run.
