RE: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] mastercam

Thanks Marcus

Most of what you said is way over my head but would it not be legal to
resell since it's original disks, not copies? This was a bankruptcy
auction; the original company is out of business. I have no use for it;
would like to see someone get use out of it & (of course) put a few
bucks in my pocket. It's not going to make nor break me to just trash
it.

Thanks

Lew

Hi Lew:
Masterscam did a major rewrite with version 7, I believe.
The user interface became more workable, and I believe V7 was the first
to
have toolpath associativity (You can edit the toolpath parameters
without
having to reselect the geometry)
I think the earlier versions than 7 would likely have limited value for
industrial customers.
There are also quite a few decent low end programs out there for
hobbyists
(many commercial customers using them too!!)
The last consideration is that the Masterscam boys will likely breathe
fire
down your neck if you resell their software, even the obsolete versions.
They are unreasonable beyond belief when it comes to persecuting the
small
fry about the dreaded license agreement.
Cheers

Marcus
