    Ah, Mach3. The other CNC controller. I use LinuxCNC myself. Mach3, and LinuxCNC are both forks of the same NIST EMC code base. That's something not many folks know. They're a lot different now though. Personally I don't see why anyone would shell out money for abandonware, as opposed to running the same thing free, and open source. Well, like I said, a lot of folks just don't know.

    In life what you don't know does tend to cost too. The LinuxCNC configuration Wizard is pretty straight forward. There's no menus. Just a succession of windows, with forward, and back buttons. Stepper Configuration Wizard
