368 Engineers Review 2004's Crop of EDA Tools
by John Cooley
"Just like when I changed jobs last time, I do not yet know for
sure what I will do next: but I will do something and for money.
I am not yet satisfied with the level of torment or insight I
have brought to this industry."
- Gabe Moretti, the outgoing EDA Editor of EDN magazine
