I still use and LOVE OrCAD386 for DOS (yes...DOS).  Schematic
capture/pcb layout.  All of which can be found FREE in their Yahoo
group (dosorcad).  There is even an updated driver to run in windows,
dual monitors etc.

Also 4pcb.com offers a layout package.  Haven't tried it though.

...just my 2 cents worth.....
