interesting ,I figured WinME would need to have some kind of
Emergency Boot Disk package to work with but MS has tried to
hide it from the user so it needs a third party hack to work
I wonder how much longer the windows OS will be hackable by
the average user for any kind of CNC use
or for that matter will we still be able to cobble together our own
hardware for the next generation of PC or will we have to scrounge
thru the junk bin at the local PC recyclers for parts

I can just see myself a few years from now tring to explain that
the USB-v12 port is not the same as the RS232 serial port I want
and getting that glazed "dead cow" look from the saleskid

or having the same kid wonder what anyone would want with
one of those 'SLOW' 2Ghz AMD Thunderbird motherboards
