Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Surfcam 2D Free will soon be discontinued

Funny thing, I just read that they (SurfCAM) were issuing
40 licenses of their product to Shanghai University for
Engineering Dep't. How long do you think it'll be before
there are 'Pacific-Rim' versions of SurfCAM for sale in the
$200 range? I sincerely wonder about all the technology
that American businesses (& those of other Capitalist
countries) are sending across the big pond, and how long
it's gonna be before we feel the rope, that we taught them
how to make, tighten around our neck...
