I have been testing cncpro and like what I see. It is a very good program
and seems to run fine. It is either a three axis or if enabled a 4 axis cnc
program. I did run into some bugs but Mr Yaeger fixed them immediately. For
the price it is about half of what Maxnc is charging.
[That's true, if you just count the $99 price of the software. But it won't
work without a control box, and they want $499 for theirs. So their package
costs $598, versus MaxNC which charges $225 for their software plus $280
for their larger control box ($200 for the smaller one) making their
package cost = $505 or $425 (and that's without taking off my 5%
discount.) However, if you're offering a control box for considerably
less and they are compatible, then this might be a good piece of software
to bundle with it, so you could offer a motion control package at an
attractive price. They did mention controlling servos with their software,
using DOS- have you asked them about this?]
