Hello.
These days I'm forced to use Cadence Allegro at my Vocational School. I'm preparing my systems and received the software from my study center, but I have some donuts:

Core i7 laptop 8GB RAM and GTX860M (thanks, scholarship one year later).
Oldie Opteron 2GB ram. Who cares, this thing can't with most of that software.
Maybe in the future: A new desktop.
These days I'm forced to use Cadence Allegro at my Vocational School. I'm preparing my systems and received the software from my study center, but I have some donuts:
- Anyone tried Cadence Allegro for both Windows and Linux? How's the experience?
- I did read some parts not work. like certain simulation aspects. Is is true in 2016 or that got solved?
- I see they used infamous MinWin to port it. They would have used Winelib instead, but okay.
- I did read some parts not work. like certain simulation aspects. Is is true in 2016 or that got solved?
- How does the Windows version works under Linux?
- I'm installing Linux now, but got distracted and collected some information in order to do things properly.
- I really HATE Windows. I don't like how it works and how delicate is it.

http://www.edaboard.com/thread226646.htmlCadence uses Mainwin to port Windows based application like Allegro/DEHDL on linux and other unix ports. However AMS Simulator or PSpice is not yet ported on Linux.
My systems:Orcad Capture/ CIS or Allegro Design Entry is a "WINDOWS ONLY" tool. You cannot use it on native Unix. Not sure if you can use WINE on Linux and operate Orcad. I have not done it myself.

Thanks in advance!Cadence allegro is the best powerful EDA tool suit. Just run it with wine support in linux.
Have a fun.
