[For the curious folks who've never heard of SPICE:]

MicroSim is a software company in California, the address is part of the
DOC file. The full product costs about $3000 with all the bells and
whistles included, this demo will at least give you a taste for them.

The Demo I posted is actually *USEFUL*, albeit limited. It doesn't just
spit pleasant looking graphics at you.

For the casual circuit analysis (you're limited to 10 transistors, so I
guess that means a passive circuit of no more than 30-40 nodes -- I haven't
explored the full limit of the "Demo"), it's a nice thing to have without
having bought the full package. (You can convince your boss later that you
just can't live without having the full product at your disposal!)

I'm a satisified MicroSim customer, and I wouldn't post this "demo" if
all it was is an advertisement. (You think I'd really blatantly waste
netbandwidth? I'm posting this because of the flurry of curious inquiries)
