In my not so humble opinion, nothing beats CorelDraw (list $695,
good educational discounts available).  All the desktop publishing
mags and most other PC-related mags carry their ads.  It's a great
product, I think, though I may be blinded by having used it a lot.
Runs under Windows 3.0.  It used to include a run-time Windows,
back in 2.11 days, but I don't know whether it still does.  You might
want to check that if you don't normally use Windows.
