Does anyone know about a good cheap/free software I can use to draw circuits?

Thanks!

You can download the "Lite" version of Orcad for free.

Or you can also download ExpressPCB's software, which is a layout program and schematic drawing program, also for free. http://www.expresspcb.com

Is it OrCad capture?

PCB/SCHEM Cads

I use PCB123 and the free version of Eagle Layout Editor.

You can find Eagle at: http://www.cadsoft.de/

and PCB123 at: http://www.pcb123.com/

They are both free and I find PCB123 the easiest to work with. You can use Eagle to generate gerber files etc. so you can send the data for making custom PCB's from just about anywhere. In PCB123 you can do something similar but you can only send it to the PCB123 company for fabrication. They both have Schematic/PCB drawing editors and the free version of Eagle limits the board size, where PCB123 is full function. PCB123 has quite a good support/help base as well.

Try them both out, they're free.
