Re: When did PCB tracks become 'traces'?
We always called the collection of tracks 'the print'.
And I've noticed that components are no longer swapped or changed, but 'swapped out'. Likewise, connecting a point on the circuit to ground is now 'grounded out', rather than just grounded or earthed.
I think these are American expressions that have somehow taken hold.
