Check out Protel Autotrax and Easytrax. They are at the
bottom of the page under freeware:

I started my company with Autotrax when I couldn't afford
anything else. If you can find yourself an early dos
version of Orcad, Autotrax will take it's netlist.
Autotrax runs under DOS, but that shouldn't be a big
hassle if money is your major concern.
