The last time I used them it was about a year ago. I routed a
small double sided board with their downloadable editing program.
It can then calculate the cost based on the size and how many you
want. You then supply a credit card and send it off while you
are still in the program. A couple of days later, the boards
arrived in the mail. I think that it is the way to go. Its a bit
expensive compared to completely making your own but I never liked
messing around with etchants and stuff.

I personally liked the quality of the boards that came back. I
didn't have any problems with them.

I also had a board done here at work and needed the Gerber files for
the board. The Gerber files were about $60.
