I've made 2 laptops in KiCAD:

This is the most awesome thing I've come across on HN in recent months if not years!

This is really awesome. Kudos for KiCAD and OpenSCAD.

That is impressive!

Another example: the HackRF SDR board was done in KiCAD

Kicad has a bunch of examples of boards made with Kicad on their homepage.

Tons of stuff on par with a Raspberry Pi or BeagleBone Black, with DRAM, eMMC, and PCIe routing, plus all the fine pitch placements for supporting circuitry. PMICs get dense in these applications.

Here's my OSHW FPGA board made in KiCAD: https://github.com/Fabmicro-LLC/Karnix_ASB-254

Not the best laid out PCB or the best project structure. But it works, and it's fairly complex.
