Circad was the 3rd PCB CAD I played with.
It gave me my home brew fat traces desired result
BUT
its price tag is waaaaaaaay out of my league to buy a current
version of it.
As far as OS goes....??
I have a new Win 10?? HP model? 15bs212wm
which is a full size laptop with a DVD player and Celeron N4000
CPU 1.1 gHz ... 4 GB RAM
with 464GB disk space.
This was the cheapest computer I could walk out of Walmart with
that was not a CHROMEBOOK.
and
Which is definitely the slowest brand new PC you can buy.
So..........
I am not about to compare apples to oranges with the hardware
considering adding gigabytes of RAM speeds up anything you have
and
you can buy refurbed DELL i5? optiplex computers for $150 now
that dwarf Celeron performance....
so
forgetting about any kind of SPEED discussion here
MY INTEREST IS IN MAKING IT WORK without spending months tripping
over "gotchas"
and
this PCBCAD51 gave me desired results in a little less than an
hour while following the "built in"? instructions.

What OS are you
using. Maybe Win7 will have a better feel for me to try it again.
I like it originally as it reminded
me of Circad from Holophase. Circad is really nice, but stupidly
overpriced.
Otherwise, Kicad is hard to beat.
