One possibility for software is the EMC -- Enhanced Machine Controller.
This is public domain software written by NIST (National Institute of
Standards and Technology and others. The EMC will run on many PC's and
control steppers directly from the parallel port. It will also run servo
motors using an add in board or the EPP stuff from Jon E. and Matt. For
more information see
www.linuxcnc.org
where there are a bunch of links to related pages.

into to get started. Drives? Computer requirements? Software? I
don't expect you to get me going tomorrow, just point me in the right
direction. <s>
