Hi DS:
Lots of guys really seem to hate Mastercam...it's got a fairly clumsy
DOS-like interface with cascading menus that you have to scroll through to
do anything.
On the other hand, it is a very powerful CAM program and a fairly powerful
CAD program as well.
I use it every day, and I like it a lot.
It is brutally expensive though...15 grand US for the full milling package.
Took me a long time to muster the cash for that one!!!
It is also really nasty to write post processors for.
Cheers

Marcus
