Comes with printed manual.

Basic system includes schematic capture, library creation tools, package 
creation tools etc. The extra cost options aren't needed unless you are 
working with very complex parts and stuff like chip-on-board. I've got them 
but hardly ever use them.

$7250 (plus SPICE at $1495) includes everything most people will need.

Unlike Protel it works very well on a 1 GHz PC with 256k of RAM. The 
autorouter is very good, although I don't use it very much.
