Some years ago I used Visio at work for schematic drawing, but I no
longer have access to it. Can someone recommend a program to use at
home for creating schematic drawings? I don't care if it is payware as
long as the price is reasonable. I found a couple with Google which
were several hundred bucks, a bit much for my needs.

Do recent Visio releases still have schematic drawing capability? I
went to the Microsoft website and they advertise all kinds of drawing
capabilities, but not schematics.

Thanks in advance,
