It is free, and is probably the fastest, most likely to converge, and all
around
best spice package available.

It seems to be one of the few free SPICE packages out there that's "actively"
maintained and improved upon these days... Linear Tech made one smart choice
in having Mike Engelhardt write them LTspice from scratch -- his skills
definitely seem to be on the level of the folks who once worked on PSpice, and
if it were a team of people rather than just Mike himself, I have no doubt
that LTspice would rapidly start having the much fancier graphing and
scripting abilities that, e.g., PSpice does.

For commercial packages John Warner's SI-Metrix is pretty nice.  Last I heard
he was maintaining SI-Metrix with just a couple of other people, and was
looking to hire more if he could find appropriately talented individuals.

Altium has just started supplying it with their PCB software. Pulsonix
has been supplying it for years.
