	I am trying to find several vendors for Printed Circuit Board
and Mechanical Design packages to run on VMS VS-II/GPX's (color).  Both of the
packages must be menu driven and as much 'mac' like as possible (pull-down
menu's, several windows etc).  It must be relatively easy for Designers (not
computer experts) to put their designs into the computer, but it is acceptable 
to have a technician (who is better trained) detail the designs further.
Additional capabilities:

PC board design:

	1. schematic capture
	2. schematic -> netlist
	3. netlist (schematic) -> board layout automagically
	4. along with above, autorouting and autoplacement
	5. autoverification that layed out board matches schematic
	6. gerber photoplotter style output
	7. cost in the $15-20K range (but send info anyway)

Mechanical design:

	1. full drafting and dimensioning
	2. 3d modelling 
	3. shaded color capability
	4. NC control package for 5 axis numerical mills.
	5. Costs in the $15-20K range (but send any info anyway)

Thanks,
