I like Microsoft Paint.
Actually, I learned CAD with Eagle, so I stuck with it. |

| Protel 99SE will do 99% of what you need. The latest Altium Designer 10 really is good, though it's significantly more expensive ... The parts management, suppliers management and 3D views really help more than you would think. |

I can't agree. Eagle UI is weird and clumsy maybe, because it follows some traditions fromthe 70s, but it's consistent.
Agreed. However, it has definitely improved from when I started back with version 4.0 (latest version is 6.2).
