Re: What does everybody use...

Ah-HA sells a db37 breakout box that will adapt their interface card to most
step and direction sysytems. They sell it for about $60. I will test (I have
a ah-ha system also that I use just for testing) the interface with my
controller over the next week and see how it performes tho there should be
any problems.
