The current version, however, seems a little retro for a multi-core, multi-gigahertz, multi-gigabyte system. ![]() Twenty years ago, I'd have used GeoWorks Ensemble's GeoDraw - an object drawing tool that ran well on a 386 with 2-4 MB RAM. I specifically need to be able to include symbols for tubes with various numbers of grids and other internal parts (beam power elements, for instance), beyond the usual resistors, capacitors, coils, and so forth. In order to document my "as built" work, I need to be able to draw a circuit diagram, and in order for it to be neat enough to publish on the Web, I'd like to use my computer to do the drawing. This may go as far as getting an Amateur license. That's as in "Radio Rangers" - crystal sets, to start, then moving up to tubes, and likely staying at that era (I don't have any real interest in transistors). ![]()
