Reverse the "Express" and the "PCB" and you'll find a really nice
little company that will take Gerber files and make boards for you.
Eagle PCB is free for small two-layer boards, includes schematic
capture, and works well
once you get your brain wrapped around their way of doing things.

want to incorporate it in a larger design.
When someone gets hot to trot for the Cadsoft product, I like to remind
him that he may find the same situation: *His* work product tied up in
**their** proprietary format:

Ah, I forgot about that issue.
So, any _other_ PCB layout program that coughs up a Gerber. Or be
careful of what you copy into your schematics.
