Well, If you can settle for 4 x 6 inches (roughly), you can get everything
needed for $125. That seems not too bad to me, for software I actually like
to use, as opposed to "can get by with".

Agreed, the $1200 (that I paid) for the unlimited version is a ton of money
for software. (Maybe you are the target audience for PCB123 :-).)

On the other hand, I was just not impressed with the alternatives to Eagle.
