     I gave a set of labs at DevCon to Windows-based hardware engineers.
     The environment was 100% Fedora + gEDA.  They had no problem doing
     the
     common tasks, and never saw a text terminal.

   I recall now reading about this on some other thread last month but
   couldn't remember. I found the thread from last month. But now I went
   to your website and couldn't find any mention of this. I did see some
   of your work with the Renesas mcu and the geda workflow. I also found
   other search results about this subject regarding your work on other
   website and even youtube.
   Something like this should be front and center right on the gEDA
   website. Who's the webmaster for geda, this should be on there. At the
   very least there should be links on [2]gpleda.org pointing to this
   info..
