I used photo shop for the graphics and button halos and such
I know there was a guide somewhere on how to do it but I can't find it now
If I remember correctly kenevil had it on his website

For the drilling template and component layout I used illustrator
The learning curve was slow for me but it did everything I wanted

http://mirrors.arcadecontrols.com/Move360/ICPD.htm has anyone use this before seems nice

Does anyone have templates for visio also for photo shop

Cheap option with all things covered (CAD accuracy, vector and bitmap editing) is CorelDRAW I guess. The stubborn not-knowing-better pro's will use the tied-in with Photoshop sale Illustrator, and those knowing better still have a copy of Freehand around. :)
