Tim,
I just found out last month that Newall dropped it due to problems
dealing with Hurco. It is a shame, as that ease of use in a full 3 axis
package would have been killer. Seeing it run on a laptop, I showed him
my dad's Sherline running Ahha and inquired about using it to drive a
stepper system. He asked about the potential market for a software only
package for the hobby/low end market and I told him I thought it could
be significant if priced right. Apparently Hurco had little interest in
modifying the program towards this end, and selling it cheap.
