Well, if I can get pspice for almost free that sounds pretty good. One
question though: is it reasonable to put in one's own models for
things? You know, how do you build a model which works in pspice
for some arbitary device? And how does pspice actually do its compution
anyway?

Jim,
I sent along the source code for the program along in a response to
Ed. He asked the same question...and I'm hoping he'll do the
calculation! hint hint.
Take care,
