Re: Altium Usage?

Eric,

IMHO while high-end tools like this are very cool, they will always be utilized by a very low percentage of teams - especially if it's something that comes to us "at kickoff" in a year where it's draining time and human resources just to get a new control system up and running consistently. In subsequent years, you'll see an increase I'm sure - if teams feel comfortable that the tool will be around for multiple years and if rules and games continue to call for use of an application. Even with that said, though, a tool that designs custom circuits will not be something that the overwhelming majority of our 2000+ teams ever utilizes due to time and human resource considerations unless it's something that "has" to be used.
