LOL Eagle would do fine for the "PRO"..
Gone are the days of wire-wrap.
Laying out boards - by hand - with exact-o knife and rolls of black paper tape in various tape widths.
Squinting at the light table - haha auto routing - yep, you WERE the auto router!
little pads and IC layouts - stuck on by hand... Netlists?????
Did some 14" X 14" controls yep with TTL then CMOS - 30-40 chips on the board - traces between pins -- "pro" days were much different then...
