In the monday, Nov. 12, 84 Electronic Engineering Times, page 108 an article
reports that for ten dollars Douglas Electronics Inc. (415) 483-8770 will
sell you a program to do pc board layout. You can then send them a disk
and they will make up your art work or boards. My favorite part of the
article follows:
First, the user calls up the Douglas Electronic facility -- on the telephone
-- and then places the mouthpiece of the telephone handset near the
loudspeaker inside the Macintosh. The program then produces a series of
tones and data bursts corresponding to the complexity of the
printed circuit-board design, and within a few moments, a price quote
is given back to the user by a Douglas employee.
Gee wiz, I've got half a modem and I never knew it!
