Maybe we're talking about different things, but I consider that Protel 99 SE
is an improvement over Protel 98. Protel 98 listed components in
alphabetical/ASCII sequence (so that R10 was listed between R1 and R2,
rather than after R9), whereas Protel 99 SE lists components in a sequence
that I (and material released by Protel) refer to as alphanumerically sorted
(in which R10 is listed after R9).
