KiCAD vs gEDA vs other open source CAD?
I tried Eagle a while ago, but didn't like it because of the fact that I have to choose physical packages when drawing a circuit diagram. I'm not very good informed about current physical packages that you usually get when you go to the shop for components.

Couple of days ago I tried Kicad, just the schematic drawing part, and for the same reason I find it a lot easier to work with.
