I think the real problem is that major CAD package vendors don't yet 
fully understand how strong (and potentially lucrative) the pro-hobbyist 
market is becoming.  Cadsoft isn't the only vendor who sells a massive 
corporately-priced product and a free/cheap super-limited version of a 
CAD package.  Altium is starting to step into the gap with CircuitMaker, 
but have licensing restrictions that would exclude the profit-minded 
amateur inventor.  Hopefully more vendors will begin to realize there 
are advanced hobbyists out there who are willing to pay a few hundred 
bucks for a solid, less-limited, for-profit-licensed piece of software.

Or maybe not.  You mean not everybody thinks just like me? :-D
