I have used both OrCAD and Schema and there seems to be a continuing
battle between them. At one time OrCAD had the overwhelming advantage
of postscript support, now Schema has it too. Now Schema has the
advantage of EMS support. OrCAD does not and thus may run out of
memory without no relief possible. For example, I can not use their
library editor while I have PC-NFS installed. 

I like Schema's user interface much better. Seems more logical and
requires fewer keystrokes. However this probably varies widely from
person to person. 

Schema is in Richardson TX, I believe. The prices are about the same.
