Joel,
ACCEL was bought by Protel/Altium along with it's bigger brother PCAD in
2000. Shortly after the Altium purchase all ACCEL users were either orphaned
or upgraded to PCAD. ACCEL no longer exists unless you are still running a
pre-Altium version (version 15 if I remember correctly). It was a pretty
respectable package in it's day, somewhat simpler than PCAD and limited in
layers/nets/parts when compared to it's big brother but in it's day it met a
price/performance point that was quite good and very suitable for a lot of
small - medium companies.
Sincerely,
Brad Velander.

The main packages you didn't mention were Protel and Accel (now owned by
Protel). Back in the Protel 3 days, I used it a lot and really liked it;
I don't have any experience with newer versions.
