20 years of EAGLE 20?

autodeskguest
autodeskguest over 16 years ago

Hi all,

 

This line on the website grabbed my interest:

 

The EAGLE Layout Editor is copyright protected software,

Copyright1988-2009 CadSoft Computer GmbH, all rights reserved worldwide.

 

So, does EAGLE really exist for 20 years already? I only got to use the 

software from about version 3.5 I think, so I really don't know anything 

about the early versions. What were they like? Was there already a 

website? I tried using the wayback-machine website, but that only goes 

back to 1996. Are there any screenshots of those early versions? I'm just 

really curious about this and maybe if I'm lucky one of the devs could 

tell me something about those early ears if they have the time?

 

Thanks, Wouter

    Who else remembers the cupon action, promising a some manual (or something

    else) that could be printed out only on cracked eagle versions.

     

    A lot of work for the legal department, as some student additionally

    installed a cracked version on the PC with the aquired legal Eagle

    version...
